Is there any real way to become taller even at the age of 24? I'm 5' 5" and being taller would of course be nice for many different reasons. I was reading about the growth pills, but I guess at least most of them are a bunch of crap that don't actually work. Does anyone know of anything that actually works?

You know, I'm not trying to bitch and complain, but dating is such a pain in the ass when you're short.
I don't want to be really tall, just a few more inches, like 5'7" or 5' 8". All my friends are pretty tall and I look like a little kid next to them.

There is an opporation they do to little people to make them taller, but it consists of breaking your legs and putting metal rods in them with an adjustment so you can stratch the bone as it mends.
Its very painful, expensive, and I don't know if they would do it for a regular shorter person. i think you may just be stuck at your height.

I saw that. I tell you what you should do, it will work immediately. Get some little ppl as friends and hang out with them all the time. You will feel like shaq.

Unfortunately there is now way around genetics, otherwise it would be a World of perfect people.

The girl I went on a date with yesterday is 5'3", I think, but I don't know if it's going anywhere.
I saw a story about this dude who was 4'10" and he had the leg and arm stretching surgery and now he's 5'10". I am not willing to be bed ridden for a years though.
Supposedly they have artificial growth hormone treatment, but there are so many drugs on the market (not just limited to growth drugs either) that I don't even know what to believe.

Think on the bright side, at least you don't hit your head on the grill when working under the hood. 
Except for something prescribed like HGH I've never heard of anything that'll work.
