Answers:
i think you are done honey sorry :-( guys are pretty much done growing height wise at the age of 21.
but personally i like shorter guys they tend to be CUTER. =)
i mean i am only 5'0 and enjoy a shorter guy so dont feel bad about not being so tallHealth Question & Answer

In some very isolated and almost unheard of cases a male will actually grow until the age of 25 so you will have to wait 4 years to find out.

A doctor can tell if your growth plates are closed or open. Probably requires an X-ray. Once your growth plates are closed no further growth is possible.

With surgery you can gain a couple of inches or perhaps even a bit more but this surgery is very complex and very dangerous and you are better off without it. If you wish to investigate this surgery (for information purposes) you can find it in a web search for "leg lengthening surgery".Health Question & Answer

There is a possibility that you will grow more, only an inch or so and definitely you will grow mentally and maturity as well. Both of those are much more important than growing taller. Alot of Girls like shorter guys and that's not such a bad things. In a study most men grew until they were almost twenty five and women stopped growth between 18 and 21. So you still have hope that you will gain a few more inches in the next few years.Health Question & Answer

no and you should know this...you should know that nothing makes you grow...its pre-destined.
There is this surgery where they break your legs and build on them from there. You gotta do it like 10 times or something like that...absolutly not worth itHealth Question & Answer

There's a crazy operation done in another country where the doctor breaks your leg bones and sets them about 2 inches apart and then attaches metal and screws to hold them in place. The bones grow back into the spaces and WHA-LA!! You're 2 inches taller! I saw it on the discovery channel... but I have no idea where to send you for more information. I don't think they do this in the U.S.Health Question & Answer

Some guys do naturally, but they're few and far between. Sorry but you'll have to get used to that height. And frankly 5'4 isn't that short. My parents are 5'5 and 5'1 and my grandmother was 4'2 (not a midget, just really short).

All I can suggest is if it really bothers you wear Nike Shox.Health Question & Answer

Just leave it to your genetics... There is no way to improve your height. ALTHOUGH, keeping good posture and straight back etc can make you appear larger and/or you can get oyur back better over timeHealth Question & Answer

Yes there is. Either have a doctor surgically attach stilts or, better yet, find jack and the beanstalk and swallow some of those magic beans.Health Question & Answer

Eat healthy food and you will eventually grow like a few inches.
Plus, 5'4 isn't that bad for a 21 year old. Health Question & Answer
