Patient's question:
I am 16 years old this year, but I am only 155 cm tall, and I have grown very slowly in a year. My classmates of the same age are already over 1.6 meters tall. Treatment history and effectiveness: In the past, I also took many calcium supplements, but I didn't grow taller. What kind of help do I need: I hope to grow taller through effective products. Do I need any medication?Doctor's answer:
There are many factors that affect height, such as heredity from grandparents, nutrition, sports, environment, lifestyle, race, endocrine, early or late sexual maturity, and so on. Based on your situation, if your parents are short or you have already started menstruating, there may not be a significant trend of growing taller.It is recommended to visit a hospital for a thorough examination of how your growth plates are closing. If they have not closed, one method to continue growing taller is to use growth hormone. You can consult further at the hospital.
The above advice is for the question "What kind of height-increasing supplements can help you grow taller?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
