A member asked:
I want to be 5'0 and idk how to lose height do you have any suggestions ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No.: Your height is genetically determined. You will lose height in your seventies or eighties if your nutrition is not optimal, but you cannot make yourself shorter. Relax and be your own height. Many many people who are 5 feet tall wish they were taller.
