I'm not sure about Indian people, but here in America 5'2" is not that tall. I would think you'd be shopping in the "petite" or "juniors" section at a department.

P.S.: I'm 5'8" and about 150 lbs, which I believe is average for an american woman.

It is all relative - 5'2 is short to a person 6'. I am 5' and think 5'2 is average. If you want people to answer your question, make it were all can understand. I do not know 7 stones (43 kilos) compared to lbs without going to a conversion chart and I do not have one in front of me so, well... Typical adult height would depend on your sex and other things. If you are a female 5'2 you maybe weight 125 - 130 ish depending on other factors.

It sounds like you are the perfect weight for your height. I am not sure what is normal for an indian, you should know that better than me:) Just be happy with who you are thought, everybody is different. I am really tall for being a girl, about 6', and while everyone is always saying that I should be happy that I am tall and count it as a blessing, it took me a long time to actually be ok with it, I hated being taller than everone else, now it's ok. So just wait, your still young, you may still grow, or you may not. Just learn to be ok with whatever happens.

5' 7" is tall for a female. Your height 5' 2" may be on the short side for todays standards. You're still young and will continue to grow at least by age 16 - some people grow vertically until 21.

see its nt that u r obessed. I think 43 kgs is a vry average weight and u can grow now bt only if u put in effort.You have to get up early everyday and go on a jogging and do aome exercise which can help you in growing your height.take all the reqiured nutrients and a cup of milk everyday i assure u if u follow this u will get great results.i can really assure u do take my advice because iam a 15 year old girl and i also suffered from same kind of thing and now iam 5'4 though i used to be 5'2 lasr year.

THE average height of Indian women as documented in some studies is 150 cm which is 13.7 cm less than the average height of 163.7 cm of women in USA(1-4). However, it is comparable to average height of women of lower income groups . of Indonesia, Philippines, Guatemala and Chile(5-8). Little can be done about stunted height during pregnancy but these women deviate sharply from their contemporaries in their weight for height which is amenable to improvement.

ALSO -- U are Femina( representing women) right? Hence why do u have height restriction considering the average height of a women in India is 5.3? ...

I'm confused... I checked out all your previous questions and you posted the same "I hate it when I don't get any answers" but all of them had 15+ answers!
Anyways, since we know it's just a ploy to get answers, here's mine.
5'2" is very short yes, but you are only 14 you have a couple inches to grow yet. So right now you are considered petite.
