Good day,
I'm a fellow shorty over here who 17 and is measured in with a height of 5 ft 6 inches. To be honest, I'm not really all that broken down about my height since I've never been ridiculed, but I will concede to the fact that I do feel quite a little below average walking around. About a year ago, I went to the endocrinologist who stated that I was about "97% done growing" according to my wrist x-rays, and that the rest of my growth would likely be negligible. I also sent some x-rays of my legs to some other doctors who mailed back to me saying, "my legs were completely fused" and that I would not grow anymore. Nevertheless, I remember reading some people posting that there are some alternatives to x-rays such as some sort of 'blood test' to determine height growth. I'm not sure about this but, if anyone could clarify that would be great.
Since Limb Lengthening is not an option for me so, I was wondering what else exists out there for increasing height. I've heard that HGH injections exist, I've also heard something about 'epiphyseal emitters therapy?' and know about the obvious lifts and height increasing shoes people use. If someone could shed some light, that'd be just wonderful.
