Hello Doctor, My Name Is Jonathan. I Am Currently 17
Hello Doctor,
My name is Jonathan. I am currently 17 years of age, but I am 5 feet and 3 inches. I can not stress how difficult it feels to be so short and feel so inferior to my classmates and friends. There are people who are younger yet way taller than I am. It has made me break down and cry because it has affecting my self esteem tremendously. I know you probably get this kind of story alot with other patients or curious people, but I'm desperate. I've considered taking HGH supplements and even supplements online that seem really fake, yet I always seem to want to believe them and sometimes do. I have tried physical exercise and eating healthy, taking the vitamins I need etc.. So please doctor, can you please tell me if there is any way to get atleast 4 inches taller?
