Question 1

how to stop height..?it growing to much

Accepted Answer

Gigantisme: If you are growing too much- more than expected, meaning that your parents are not tall, but you are very tall and continue to grow- your condition may be abnormal and you should go to see your doctor for more evaluation. You would need to get some blood work and some imaging like MRI of the head is likely to be done. Referral to an endocrinologist & neurosurgeon can be done accordingly as needed.

Question 2

my daughter is 12 years old...n her height is 5.6...i m 5.4 n my husband is 6 feet...my daughter still dont ve monthly periods..how to stop height?

Accepted Answer

Patience: Apparently, your daughter has entered her adolescent growth spurt (can start as early as age 9 in females, and last an average 24-36 months). Assuming she has no hereditary disorder of her glands or hormones, her height may be starting to max out as we speak. I would also be patient with her menstrual periods. She seems to be OK. Hope that helps.

Accepted Answer

Probably full grown: This is a change- virtually every day i see questions here from 18 yo men asking how they can grow taller! i tell them there is not much they can do because most men stop growing by age 18 and this is true for you as well. Occasionally men will grow a bit until age 21 but even if you do keep growing it should not be very much and the odds are very good you have reached your full height!
