Is there anything you can take?

Question

im 5'7...and im a model...my agent told me that i need to be 5'9 to do runway...its my dream..im only 16..but i mite have stoped growing already?..is there anything that you can take to make you grow taller?

Answer 1

nope there isnt anything. you still have 2 more years for possible growth. i know how you feel im not even 5"7 and modleing is very important to me and its my life but i just cant do the things i would prefer to do because of my height and it really sucks . be thankful at least you 5"7. some women do runway at your height so id try maybe another agency.

Answer 2

Being a model is fun and exciting but not worth destroying your health and risking your life for. Yes, designers do prefer tall, very thin models so the clothing almost looks like it's on a hanger with a beautiful head. That does not mean that your desire to be a runway model is unrealistic even if you do not grow 2 more inches. There are shorter runway models. Please do not subscribe to any questionable treatment promising growth. Most don't work and are extremely dangerous in the absence of medical advice and care.

Answer 3

You can make sure you get good nutrition and plenty of sleep. Don't drink, and don't smoke. Being healthy will ensure you reach your full height potential.

But if being 5'9" isn't in your genes, you can't force it to happen.

If you want to find out whether you've stopped growing or not, your doctor can look at the fusion of bones on an X-ray (usually of your leg or wrist) and tell you if you have a few more inches to go.

Oh, and the growth hormones only work on people whose bodies have an HGH deficiency. Since you have made it to 5'7", you don't, and they wouldn't actually do anything.

Answer 4

Not really... there is growth hormones... but the side effects can turn you into a freak, so don't do that. I am 5'7" also. I seem to remember my doctor looking at an x-ray of the bones in my wrist and predicting that I would grow to be exactly 5'7". I thought, whatever, my mom is 5'5" and my dad is 6'2" so I figured I would be taller.... but, at 25, I have to accept that the doctor was correct. Go to the doctor and see if they can tell you.

Answer 5

While some growth hormones might boost your height, you really shouldn't be even remotely considering such an option. Like you said you're only 16 and it very likely that you still have some growing left to do. If you did ever opt for hormones, be sure to talk about all the possible side effects with your doctor. I'm sure you wouldn't want to exchange your health for 2 inches.

Answer 6

Time Can Only Tell But If You Are Really Done Growing Then..No..Wear High Heels..Get Used To Them.

Answer 8

Some people don't reach their full height until they are 18-22. But I didn't grow any taller after 16yrs. Nothing you can do about it - your maximum height is genetically determined.

Answer 9

Be happy with who you are. Never try to be someone that someone else wants you to be. There are plenty of models out there who are not 5'9".

Answer 10

Sorry, nothing short of hormones can make you sinificantly taller.
