Be Happy with 5'3": I don't think you can grow taller after age 21, you can only grow bigger , which is not adviced. Be happy with your height and stay healthy.

That won't happen: At age 21, you've reached your full growth. My acquaintance, bodybuilder lee priest (photo), is 5'3". He's not complaining. Physical fitness and development in a man takes precedence over everything else when it comes to looking good. Some scientists say that shorter men live longer and age slower. Enjoy who you are.

Won't happen: The same hormonal changes that trigger puberty also signal the growth centers of long bones to close. Once they close, they do not re-open and no additional natural growth is possible.If you have lots of cash,ready to handle lots of pain and a year or two to waste, there are surgical procedures in some countries that could lengthen your leg bones.
