Question

I am a high school student and I am shorter than average. I feel insecure about my height and am unable to confess to the girl I like. I suspect I may have short stature. I would like to ask how I can improve my height through diet?

Answer

The treatment of short stature requires corresponding measures based on different causes. In terms of diet, it is important to maintain a balanced nutritional intake and supplement any nutrients that may be lacking. Additionally, hormone replacement therapy can be considered, such as recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy, growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) therapy, and sex hormone therapy. Timely treatment is crucial for height growth, as missing the treatment window may affect the effectiveness of growing taller.
