OMG FUCKING DO A BIT OFF EFFORT NIGGA EAT PROTEIN (MEAT EGGS) AND SLEEP (WHEN YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES AT NIGHT FOR REST) IF YOU DON'T GROW YOU WAS NOT MEANT TO ACCEPT YOUR FATE. IF YOU REACH 5'10 YOU WONT BE LOOKED DIFFERENTLY JUST A AS NORMAL HUMAN YOU ARE PROBABLY LOOKED AS A NORMAL HUMAN AT 5'8. 5'6 AND BELOW IS MANLET TERRITORY. ALSO YOU JUST SAID YOU GREW FROM 14.5 TO 16 WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK THAT MEANS?

i heard human growth hormone works? haven't looked too much into it bc i don't care to be taller


however, i know that fasting can increasing hgh but you need to fast for long periods of time like DAYS no eating and it's pretty hard

i fasted during puberty and that's probably why I am so tall

you could've been taller, actually. What makes you think that starving yourself will result in more growth when any type of growth is anabolic? When you fast you LOSE something you had, right? Thats catabolic. Fasting will raise your GH levels because your body's trying hard to keep you ALIVE not THRIVE. HGH levels rise to keep you away from turning to a corpse. When you fast, the high GH doesn't convert to IGF-1 in the liver, meaning that there's no benefit of fasting if you want to grow taller

"Longitudinal bone growth is also regulated by nutritional intake, mediated in part through a complex endocrine network that includes leptin, IGF-I, sex steroids, thyroid hormone, and glucocorticoids.18 As a result, undernourished children have impaired linear growth (despite elevated GH levels) whereas obese children have normal or mildly accelerated growth (despite low GH levels).44"

From this study

Depends, whether your growth plates are still open.
For most men they close between 16-18.
