Question: Is There Any Way To Grow Taller After 20?

Answer 1

Girls usually stop growing at 15. Growth after 19 is highly unlikely but if your growth plates are still open then further growth is still possible and perhaps you could gain as much as an inch. The absolute deadline for females is 21.

A bone X-ray can determine whether or not your growth plates are still open. Once they are closed no further growth is possible.

Perhaps you can find some useful information in a web search for “how to grow taller naturally”.

To be a dwarf (or midget) you have to be shorter than 4′10 or 147 cm so you are at least 4 inches taller than a dwarf (or midget).

Answer 2

get a stretching machine! no soz i think you have stopped growing now
but someone who is 14 is like 6ft something and he smokes and someone was going “why do you smoke its well bad bla bla bla” and i said, looking right up at him “yeah and it stunts your growth!”
ps don’t start smoking

Answer 3

This is quite difficult to grow after your development and growth stage. However, there are some possibilities – if you exercise a lot, and do plenty of stretches five+ times a day. Also as you’ve probably heard all the time, eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables, and include nuts and yogurt in your diet, which are good for growth as well.
The best possible exercises you could do are basketball, netball and any other sports/exercise that includes a fair bit of jumping, stretching and so on.

Also, in everyday life make sure you continually keep your back and neck straight as much as you can.
Yoga and pilates are quite useful too. One great stretch you could try is lie on your back with arms stretched up above you and point your feet down. Then just pretend you’re trying to grab something. Hold for at least 20 seconds, then repeat a few times.

Answer 4

There’s no healthy way to grow after 20. Your genes are pretty tired out, to be honest. People used to stretch themselves, but this did more harm than good – spinal injuries etc. You might have to live with it. Or wear the kind of shoes Harry Hill does.

Answer 5

People generally stop growing around their mid twenties – that’s when your body stops renewing cells properly and you begin to degrade. Up until then you’ve got a chance. You’ll notice the change when you cut yourself and it takes much longer to heal than it used to and scars more.

Good luck and eat a lot of proteign rich foods, the lack of red meat in the Japanease diet led to the stereotype of them all being short (they were). Since the introduction of western quisine the average height in Japan has increased significantly.

Answer 6

As far as natural growth is concerned, It isnt about age..it depends ow far on you are on puberty, i.e. If your growth plates have merged or not. If you started puberty just a while ago..then you will probably grow a few inches.

However if you have already passed this stage in your life..then Im really not sure.

Question: I am 19 years old male 5′8 in height and I am unhappy about it. Is it possible to grow any taller after puberty?

Answer 1

You don’t have to be unhappy about your height! You’re within what I call the common range for guys, which is either 5′6″-6′2″ or 5′8″-6′2″. Some people have to end up being the shorter person and that’s just life. You still have a year left of possible growth, but you’re already at a fine height. You have great options for dating; you can date cute girls who are around 5′2″ like a previous girl said and many shorter girls are very attractive; they will definitely like a 5′8″ guy!

Answer 2

Unfortunately at 19, it is very unlikely that you will grow any taller, unless you went through puberty at a very late age (say 16/17 y/o). Why are you “very unhappy” – you are simply on the lower side of the average male height range. Unless you desperately want to be a basketball player, it’s your personality that counts, not your height. Concentrate on becoming a good listener and talker, and making people laugh. If you are good at those social skills, people (especially women) will not even notice how tall you are.

Answer 3

You should be done with growing by now. However the amount of sleep you get directly impacts growth since you grow while you are asleep. Try getting plenty of sleep and drink lots of water. Also take a multivitamin everyday. The chances that you could grow diminish more with time. But if you are going to grow anymore it would be in the next year.

Answer 4

Usually you will grow taller for 2-3 years after menarche (The onset of menstruation) so chances are you are not done growing yet.
My daughter is 13 and started her period 3 years ago. She’s still getting taller. She grew another inch this summer bringing her to 5 feet 8 inches tall.

As for the milk suggestions, although calcium is good for your body it will not make you taller.
Bones do not grow throughout their length. They grow from growth centers, called the epiphysis, near their ends. When a person reaches puberty, growth centers close one after the other until all the growth centers are closed forever and a person’s bones can never grow again. After that, a person can grow wider, but not taller.

Answer 5

time will do it for you and maybe it shall be more than you want because growing up does not stop after puberty but it continues until you are nearly 21 years old
so i shall wait for another 8 years and look for a question from you complaining that you are too tall for your be loving man
Cheer up

Answer 6

Well I don’t know if it will work but Trying drinking alot of extra milk, it has calcium and a lot of vitamins in it to help your bones grow string so try this!! lol good luck and if u do find out plz!! tell me!!! I know im going to get mine really soon and im 5′2 right now and my doc says I’m going to be 5′6 and I really want to b taller than that! =] lol well good luck byes!!! =]

Answer 7

Because of your fathers height you may get a little taller or you may not. People do still grow after puberty; you can grow into your mid 20s. But don’t think you’ll get to 6ft either; generally you may only gain another inch or two.
