How To Grow Taller?

does over masturbation cause height problems? I am 18 years old and in middle school and the beginning of high school I masturbated a lot. I am not as sexually active now but i do masturbate from time to time. I have not grown and still remain 5'2" inches tall. my younger brother is already taller than me and he is 14 years old. is there something wrong? what can i do to grow taller?

Good morning,
14 is a difficult time for most. No, masturbation does not cause height problems. You should notice period growth spurts, which often times can be actually painful. I recommend you continue with a health diet adequate in all nutrients including protein, vegetables, fruits and wholgrains and dairy. Get adequate calories and some day ( if you didn't inherit a short gene) you will have a growth spurt or even more than one.

Calm down. Everything is normal for your age, but I would consider more socialization and less foreplay.
