Rarely, growth hormone is approved for use in very young, extremely short kids.

Balanced nutrition: At seventeen your growth centers have limited if any potential for growth and simple measures help the best.Follow a healthy diet, rest and exercise, but no special diet or exercise will alter your genetic potential.If you want to know how much longer you have to grow, an x-ray of your wrist and hand can be analysed for bone maturity.If more like a 14 yo you can grow more,if 17 you are done
