Why haven't doctors invented anything to make us taller?
post #1

Women have boob jobs, tummy tucks, plastic surgery and butt implants. Height is one of the most important attributes a man can have. Aside from Leg Lengthening which only makes our legs longer, why haven't there been any advancements in medicine to make us taller after puberty?

 

I don't think I'm going to grow anymore and I see all of the girls in my school only going for tall guys. I read articles on how taller men get paid more and married earlier. With all of the money they put into finding cures, why is there no cure for being short and a boy?

Rather than being like the 20 million young men before you who spent months or years looking for "miracle medicines", perhaps it would be best to concentrate on your studies and making yourself the best version of you possible. I have no interest in being taller. I am who I am. Even if you were 6'2, there would be no guarantee that women would be all over you. There probably hasn't been any discoveries in adult height research because not enough adult men care about it. There is probably no need.

Change your attitude son. This site is for people who are okay with themselves. Accept that you are short and be comfortable with yourself.

What is wrong with moving science forward? There IS a need for men to become taller and being short is a problem for boys. I have read a bunch of articles on a blog called natural height growth, but it seems like everything there is all talk.

If doctors could raise enough money and dedicate themselves to research they could be multi billionaires. This is something everyone wants and has always wanted.

Fascinating study on a town where the average height for men is within the range of 5' to 5'6 and women 4'8 to 5'2.

I was not meant to be short, doctors stole my height.

Ok, long story short, I always had nasal obstruction, because my septum was deviated. My mother had the same problem, and would always use some nasal drops containing a corticosteroid(dexamethasone).
I started using too, when I was about 9 years old, then I went to a doctor, to confirm that it was safe, and the doctor told my father, that I could use the medication.
 
When I was 11 years old, my growth became slow, and I developed something called Cushing's Syndrome, which is caused by corticosteroid overuse. The long usage of corticosteroid stunted my growth for three years, it's a common effect.
I'm 5'5(165cm) and probably would be 5'10 without taking the medication. Also a study confirmed that genital development is also affected. I have a 5.5 - 6 inches penis when very aroused, and very thin, about 4.5 inches in girth. I think about this all the time, and I am dreaming of it every single night, dreaming about being rejected by a girl, because of my height and my thin penis. The worst thing is that I'm sure that my penis would be bigger and I would be taller, since even my doctor confirmed that I am right. Even short girls have height requirements.
 
A girl might not find me as attractive as she would, if I had a larger penis and was taller. This medication fucked my life. I don't want to whine, but this has been deeply affecting my life. And i'm also very shy, so these two more complexes are making my head explode. I need help.
 
I blame my mother for giving me that in the first place, because I was not meant to have to go through this. I was not meant to be naturally short and probaly would have a bigger penis. I read in an article about Lupus, that every single guy who took prednisone during puberty, had a smaller penis than healthy patients.
 
I keep thinking that every time that I will have sex, the girl is not looking at me, she is looking at a chemical induced result.
Please, I really need help. I have this haunting me since 2016, when I found out about the side effects.
If you search "iatrogenic cushing's syndrome nasal drops" several cases like mine will pop up.
What should I do? Just accept and live my life? Jesus, I was meant to be taller, stronger, since corticosteroids also affect bone development. What should I do? I think about this 24/7.
 
I think that maybe I would have a girthy penis, that would stimulate girls visually a lot, and keep comparing myself with other guys, thinking that I will be cheated on because of my thin penis. The worst thing is, THIS WAS CAUSED BY A FUCKING MEDICATION, JESUS. I KEEP THINKING THAT I WILL FOREVER BE MISSING OUT ON A LOT OF EXPERIENCES THAT I WOULD HAVE WITH A BIGGER PENIS, THAT I WOULD PROBABLY HAVE. AND TO MAKE IT EVEN WORSE, SOME FAMILY FRIENDS TOLD MY PARENTS WHEN I WAS A BABY THAT I HAD A BIG PENIS FOR A INFANT. FUCK, MAYBE I WOULD HAVE A BIG PENIS. I AM RAGING. 
 
Knowing everything short guys have to put up with, how the hell should I feel?

Doctors can print growth plates with 3D printers!

Looks like anyone wanting to grow taller might have a chance in their lifetime with this new technology. I read about this on the natural height growth blog and it says that scientists have printed 3D spinal discs and there is nothing to stop them from printing new growth plates. Check it out here
