Patient's question:
Not growing tall anymore. In middle school, you can still grow about 1 cm per year. Starting from the second semester of the third grade, you stopped growing. Is it that I can't grow tall anymore? I'm 16 years old, and my body is normal and healthy. My parents' heights are 162 cm and 152 cm respectively. Can I still grow taller?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the girl told you that the growth cycle is generally around 16 years old. You are also almost there now. The growth speed will slow down afterwards. You just need to be more active and pay attention to calcium supplementation, eating hard cheese, low-fat cheese, fat-free sweetened condensed milk, yogurt, squab, fish, shrimp, soy products, nuts, etc. Also, pay attention to a balanced diet. According to estimates, you can grow to 162.
