Question

A 12-year-old adolescent experienced precocious puberty at the age of 11 and has not grown taller for a year. Currently, their height is 152 centimeters. They inquire whether there is still an opportunity to continue growing taller and what measures should be taken to promote height growth.

Answer

Hello, based on your situation, it is recommended to undergo a trace element test, as deficiencies in zinc and calcium may be barriers to height growth. Treatment options may include calcium and zinc supplements. Additionally, increasing the intake of fruits, vegetables, and supplements to vitamin intake should be considered, while avoiding picky eating and snacking. Furthermore, exposure to sunlight and engaging in moderate exercise can help promote overall health and height growth. Maintain a positive attitude towards life, and wish you a healthy growth.
