How does an 18 year old male grow taller?

[Techie333]

Well, my cousin is over for the summer and he get really bummed out about his height all the time. He is probably the shortest person in our entire family! A mere 5'3", which isn't too bad I guess, but he is really annoyed and everyone else in our entire family is at least 3-4 inches taller. I guess he got bad genes or something. Anyway is there any way he can increase his height now???....He is 18.5 by now and I figure its too late??

Nothing that I know of. Just hope and pray that he gets taller. Tell him to get plenty of exercise too.

drink lots and lots of coffee and make sure to smoke.

How would he increase his height if he were younger? I'm pretty sure that's one of those genetic things.

I hope you aren't serious...

 

[notfred]

Heh, my fiancee is taller than he is.. and she's not very tall.

One of those Middle Ages torture machines that stretch you out should do the trick.

Rub some of that breast enhancement cream on the top of his head and bottoms of his feet?
Side effects may include nipples.

growth hormone treatment, but it's expensive and the research for it is inconclusive in terms of long-term effects. might cause cancer? it should be good till he's 22, i think. if he whines about being short, tell him "at least you're not deformed or lame..."

I get email every day about some sort of product that can do that. I can forward it to you if you want.

Human Growth Hormone injections.........i think...........and other methods.........well there are lots of them....

From what I understand, once your body's growth plates fuse together, your sh*t out of luck. At 18 yrs old, he's likely stopped growing.

Maybe leg extensions, where they cut into your bones and insert metal rods that lengthen your legs. *shudder* I don't know how anybody could do that.

Milk does a body good....

Seriously, I got a 3" growth spurt at 20. So don't sweat it.

 

[twobrain]

bovie growth hormones yummy... drink your milk... eat more chicken... eat more cows....

 

[pray4mojo]

Is he a late bloomer?

 

[Techie333]

He might be actually.......because the whole family is 3-4 inches taller so it doesnt make sense for him not to be....

ya, there have been a couple of dumber ones, like a a bunch of woodie-naq, but this is one of the dumbest, not necessarily the dumbest....can we at least agree on that?

You haven't been around here too long. Give it a couple of years..

 

[SammyBoy]

Wow.

 

[Shantanu]

Uhhh.. Height is all relative. He should move to some place like California or Texas where there are lots of Asians or Mexicans, and the average height is a couple of inches lower so that he can at least feel somewhat taller.

Yep, 3" is better than having no dick at all, I suppose.

 

[kami333]

I grew another 1/2" or so between 18 and 22 so it's still possible.
