Solution for Small Framed Short Guys?

Edit Post

Basically that. I am 5’1”, and have a child sized body. Shoe size 6-6.5. Wingspan 5’3 at max. Sitting height 80 cm. I want to elongate my torso no matter what, and if possible widen my shoulders (shoulder width: 15 inches).

I don’t think LL is my solution since I will still have a horrid small body, kind of how dwarves look when they do LL.

Thoughts? When will bone plate reopening be possible? I feel so bad since mine closed basically when I was 13. By that age, my bone age basically was that of an 18 years old. To make things worse, American society is full of biases and prejudices. It completely sucks to be a short man in America and any other heavily Western influenced country.

Hand size: 6.7 inches.

Your wingspan is 5'3" so say you lengthened 3+ inches and maxed out the precise rod you'd be 5'4"-5'4.5" with 5'3" wingspan which is in the realm of normal and not noticeable as far as proportions. I think proportions as many said are overrated you'd most likely be fine.

From my understanding there are people with smaller torsos and no one really bats an eye and we focus on ourselves much more than others do.

I'm not trying to tell you what to do but I think regardless of proportions you'd benefit alot from the lengthening and becoming taller. I wish you the best of luck sir and hang in there.

I won’t do LL. Simply too risky and expensive, and still doesn’t guarantee anything. And will fk up my proportions regardless.

All I wish is for a risk free, or ar least compared to LL, alternative thar could at least grant everyone 3-4 inches extra. That’s it. I would be happy at 5’4 yet I would not fking break my legs for that, neither am willing to spend 100k just to still live a  ty life in heightist America. Here in Mexico, being short is not thar of a big deal but heightism is still here to some extent, so by being 5’4 that would at least give me some bit of an advantage in life. That’s it. I wanna be short but not petite, which I currently am. Cheers to all.

They are not short anymore. At least the youth. I have been there already. Thanks everyone for the biased and unhelpful responses.

You are arguing against facts... Your height neurosis just makes you notice the taller ones from their younger generations more. They are still factually the shortest women, on average, on Earth... This is not up for discussion. As you've seen in my quotes, they've grew, but are still the shortest.

Women but not men lol. Men are all around 5’6 there now, definitely shorter than us Mexicans but not by a lot.

Always self conscious about my stature and neotony that I can't even smoke in tranquility, all those eyes piercing towards me. People trying to infer whether they should confront me or not about being under age, It isn't pleasant and going to the bar alone is daunting. I can't even fathom what It must be like for OP but I understand partially, I think CLL isn't the answer for us short guys that look stunted and underdeveloped. We need some thing better to fix "all" of our problems and until then we should consider CLL as an inferior alternative rather than an absolute.
Thanks, weird guy. You basically understand me what I tried to mean.
