Answer 1

your are fairly short.
but maybe when you hit puberty you will grow faster

Answer 2

Yes, for a 15 year old boy, that height could be considered a little on the lower side.

Puberty is the change of a boy into a man. Secondary sexual characteristics like growth of beard, hoarsening of voice etc. take place and thoughts of sex start increasing. Height increases dramatically during that time.

Pl. see a doctor if needed to ensure that you grow well. After 18, growth stops.

Answer 3

Your fine.
Puberty refers to the process of physical changes by which a child's body becomes an adult body capable of reproduction. Growth accelerates in the first half of puberty and reaches completion by the end. Body differences between boys and girls before puberty are almost entirely restricted to the genitalia. During puberty major differences of size, shape, composition, and function develop in many body structures and systems. The most obvious of these are referred to as secondary sex characteristics. In a strict sense, the term puberty (and this article) refers to the bodily changes of sexual maturation rather than the psychosocial and cultural aspects of adolescent development.

Answer 4

I have a son whom is 14, and much like you. He's half-Filipino. He has "growth delay" just as his father did. Puberty has not happen to my son yet, and happened to my husband at the age of 17.
Growth delay- bones younger than current age. My son is 14; 4'11" and 70 pounds. My husband was 4'11" as a senior in high school.
You will be average height later in life. And you will look better than other men your age. My husband is now 5'9" and 165-170 pounds. He's 37 and looks 27. Yes, the women love that.

Answer 5

For 15 years, you have good height. It much depends on your parents' heights and you may make some difference by eating healthy, exercise & yoga. It's ahbout time you are having puberty. It's the transition from child to adult. Its period is 10 to 18 years of age.

Answer 6

Too short for what? You'll probably grow a couple more inches and end up around 5'4" to 5'5". That is not an unusual height for an asian male. Learn to live with it, because there is nothing you can do about it.

Answer 7

You have 3 more years to grow til you are 18. Don't stress too much. Just because you are short, your attitude is what matters most. If you are confident that will show. I don't measure in cm so I have no idea how tall you are.

Answer 8
