Possibly the cause is ISS?

Question

ISS is short stature. I am 18 5'4 109 pounds. I haven't grown since 7th grade. My parents are pretty tall...My dad being 6 foot and my mom being 5"4. I've always had a bad appetite. I hardly take in 1000 calories a day. I'm in the 3rd percentile of the boys growth chart. I look MUCH younger than my actual age some say 15... I still fit in the clothes I wore in 7th grade......I'm going to the doctors monday to ask him about it.

Anyone else think I might have it?

Answer 1

I'm sure this matters to you at your age...but, I'm 39, and have a 46 year old boyfriend who is 5'6" tall ( i'm 5'7")...and he looks 20 years younger than he is....I spend all my time worrying that he will run off with a younger and shorter chick because he is so bloody cute....short is not a problem...most girls like a man the same height as them because ....things just fit better...sure get checked out, but if you are just naturally small, don't worry about it....women love it...trust me, I have never been happier or more satisfied...
