Idk what happened. Recently i got diagnosed with hypothyroidism and other hormonal tests are on the way.

And yea i know 166cm for 12yo is a lot but you gotta remember that my uncles are both around 200cm of height.

Why didn't your parents, doctors, teachers, etc. do anything to help you back then?

Good question.

I begged my mom to go to the doctor since i felt bad and i didn't grow a single cm but she said that i will grow later for sure.
Now i'm almost 20 and i still didn't hit any kind of growth spurt, welp.

How much should I lengthen by and which segment? Also what would be the minimum cost for this procedure including living away from home etc..

Hype, with all due respect, spend a few hours reading some of the diaries posted on the forum. There are no answers to many of your questions because the doctor/method you choose will ultimately depend on not just your finances/time, but your personal preferences as well.

You could do 4cm on both your femurs and tibias if you had the money.
I'd suggest 4cm internal femurs first and second tibia which can be lengthened through external devices or internal devices.

I say 4cm each bone because it's the best amount to lengthen without fking things up.

Your first operation on your femur would put you at 177cm (5'10") which is a great height. You might even decide that you don't need to get the second surgery.

Midnightninja- I think 4cms would be safe bet not too mention it sounds thinking of being 5'10 haha. Do you think my proportions will still be fine if I lengthen both segments or even just one? I'm not a proportion nazi but I'm worried how my torso and arms will look after lengthening...

You won't notice 4cm in proportions but you will notice it in height.
