My Lengthening Plan
« on: January 19, 2020, 12:03:02 PM »

I am 15yo and currently 5'5, however I am coming towards the end of my growth. I am planning to lengthen 5cm Tibia, 5cm Femur, 3cm Radius and 3cm Humerus since I have very short limbs. How can I achieve this lengthening in the shortest time frame and which doctor will do this? (I am going to wait till I am 21/finished university to get surgery)

dont worry about this until 18-21 kid. just work on getting good education, studying hard, getting job, earning money. just get financially and emotionally strong until the time ur ready to even consider LL. or if ur parents sponsor u then it will be a lot easier.

this is not a supermarket to pick some of x, some of y, some of z and pay with your credit card at the cashier. if ur really really serious by 18 then start with one LL (femurs internal) and see how it goes and whether u want to really do an other one.

each surgery is brutal.. even though u can recover to a large extent.

but i understand u might feel restless at ur age... it happesn  to every one.

Did you see a doctor for growth?
Injection may work still
Much easier and cheaper than the surgeries
