Do growth(height) pills work for teenagers?...?

Question

OK, so im 16, and im about 5'7" or 5'8"...im already taller than both my parents, and I think only a couple of people from my family are taller(meaning like 5'10" or above), so I was thinking of buying the growth and/or enhancing pills to grow as much as possible....any answers for my problem,.??...

Answer 1

You're only 16, you've still got alot of growing to do. Don't pump yourself full of pills and chemicals

Answer 2

No don't use growth pills. My cousin did and he didn't stop growing untill he was 6'7".

Answer 3

ok so are you really this dumb...

there are no pills that make you grow any taller than you are naturally going to grow.

trust me im 5 feet and i wish there was..

the pills you are talking about are for muscle enhancement..

so i guess if you want to be all burl then go right ahead as for getting taller wait a few years and see what happens...

or you could always get knee surgery...

Answer 4

No you cannot take a pill to get taller, and anyone that tells you you can is full of it and looking for a profit.

Bummer, sorry.

Answer 5

Stupid Question. If you want to put your body at risk go ahead.

.. did that help at all?

Answer 7

Why would you want to be any taller than you already are?

Yeah, I wouldn't mess with those. You are still growing and have plenty of time to do so, taking something like that, one doesn't work, and two you may mess something up.

Answer 8

haha how can a pill make your bones grow taller ?

Answer 9

Those pills don't work, just like the natural male enhancement and the boob enhancement pills don't work. Genetics will determine the size of all of that. Save your money and don't put trash in your body.

Answer 10

don't do it...alot of short girls (like myself) look for not too tall guys! im only 4"11 ive dated only one tall guy in my life and it was the most awkward thing ever!!

Answer 11

I have friend and he is only 5'4" only 2 inches taller then me. His doctor prescribed them to him. But they didn't work for him and made him gain weight bad! I told him that no matte how tall of short he is that we love him the way he is and nothing could change that.

Answer 12

If they're the ones you see advertised on TV or in magazine ads - they don't work for anyone regardless of age.

Answer 13

your height....like every other feature you have...is determined by genetics....

Answer 14

this will give you an advantage.......it don't know anything about growth pills........consider this

because your body and bones does it's growing at night when you are sleeping....it has been suggested that for height a glass of milk at bedtime will give your bones more calcium to grow on.....  

Answer 15

actually there are drugs that can do that....but they are illegal for teenagers, and very unsafe. make sure you do some major research before you try any.

Answer 16

that doesnt really sound safe...research it first

Answer 17

i never heard of it. but every medicine has a side effect. like you can experience pain in your knees. it can be pretty painful, so just consider the side effects.  

Answer 18

NO.

Answer 19

growth pills are a hoax.  the sad news is that the only thing that will make you taller is genetics, good posture, and proper nutrition.

once again: growth pills dont work.  

Answer 20

No, there is no magic pill.  I've seen doumentaries on surgical proceedures that look painful, and need to to be done on a reguar basis until the doctor believes you've reached your max height.  I would be very careful and do the research before embarking on such radical treatments.
