Why are my hands and feet not growing?
My hands and feet are not growing. I dont understand why not. Im 15 and 1/2 and in the past 2 year ive grown 6 inches in height. But for whatever reason my hands are feet are not growing. I've had the same shoes for about a year and a half and they fit me just as well as when i first bought them. My hands and feet also look disproportionate to my body. They look a bit smaller compared to the rest of my body. Is this normal? Also to be honest im kind of a early bloomer as well. I just dont see why everything else is growing but not my hands and feet

My boobs haven't grown in like a year and half?
Okay, so I'm 15 now, I got my period at 14. And im wearing a 32 B. The problem is, my breasts havent grown in like 2 years, but they've formed into more of a circle boob, if you know what i mean. And its starting to freak me out. Are they still going to grow? like my mom has almost a C cup, but i still have 32 B. I don't think its normal, because I have had my period for over a year now, and they havent grown in size at all, is this normal? will they still grow?
I haven't grown in 1 and a half year. Have I stop growing?
Chances are that you’ve stopped growing.Growth stopping at age sixteen in males is a sign of early puberty. Puberty before age twelve is early in males, because the average age to begin is age twelve. Early puberty stunts growth, removing two or three inches from final adult height. This means if you were to end up 5′10″, you would’ve always been 6′0″, or 6′1″. Essentially, two inches above your current height is the height you would’ve been had you began puberty later.Because both of your parents are very short, you’ll likely stay short. However, you are taller than your father, which is what a majority of males achieve, so that’s a sign of healthy growth.If you didn’t begin puberty early, then you likely got unlucky with genetics, which stop growth earlier than a majority of males.You may continue growing next year, because growth has to stop for at least two years to confirm that it’s stopped entirely. It’s normal for growth to stop for a while, and then continue. It’s the bodies way of allowing the rest of your body to catch up with the height you’ve achieved.
Why haven't I grown at all in a year?
Four things could’ve happened:Your body has naturally stopped growing for a year, and will continue later. This is natural.You’ve inherited genetics from a shorter person in your family, making you shorter than a majority of your family.Your nutrition is poor.You have a growth disorder, such as growth hormone deficiency.You’re 5′8″, and I assume you’re a male. Most males at age 16 grow an extra 1.5 inches. This can be proven here. Females grow less than 0.5 inches, as seen here.My family is actually similar to yours. Most females in my family are about 5′10″, and most males are about 6′2″, but my paternal grandfather was just 5′6″ because of one short person in his family, around 5′5″, and I’d say you’re likely to be in a similar situation.I’d suggest waiting one more year, and if growth hasn’t occurred, see your doctor to assure that no medical issue is present. They’d also be able to tell you if your growth is normal.
I'm 12 and I haven't grown in 2 years. Have I stopped growing?
Most likely.No growth for two or more years is usually an indicator that growth has stopped entirely. Growth stopping early is usually due to early puberty, or growth hormone deficiency.Early puberty is before the average age of twelve in males, or eleven in females. Beginning before this age causes rapid maturation of the bones, so they develop too fast for the body to complete full growth.Growth hormone deficiency is a person that’s deficient in growth hormone. Low levels of growth hormone can cause depression, short stature, and/or growth rates below 2.0 inches per year during the beginning of puberty, and/or before puberty. If this is not treated, the person won’t grow well, and their body will be underdeveloped, with their height being severely underdeveloped. If this condition goes untreated, you’d require surgery to increase height further.Most males achieve their fathers height, and females achieve their mothers height. Both of your parents are short, with your father being extremely short. This means you’d be short, but you shouldn’t be as short as you are now. Your father is around the 3rd percentile for height, meaning 97% of American males are taller than him, but your mother isn’t as short, and is around the 35th percentile, meaning 65% are taller, and you’re around the 35th percentile if you’re male, or 25th percentile if you’re female.Either you began puberty early, you’re growth hormone deficient, or you just got unlucky with genetics. You’d have to contact your doctor to be entirely sure.You can view the charts below to show you where you should be compared to most American males and females.
How much do boys grow in a year during puberty?
Puberty is an unexpected time for anyone who goes through it. Changes can range from squeaky voice to Morgan Freman type of voice (Not too deep but highly unexpected) to growing 6 inches taller. You are asking in a year? I will use myself (17 year old boy), my cousin (14 year old), my bolder brother (at the time was 15), and my friend (another 17 year old) said examples. Let me just say we all have different fathers (including my older brother) so you understand we don't fully derive from the same gene donors LOL. I am a 17 year old. Puberty hasn't even fully hit me. I'm getting taller and taller which is good. But I'm still quite average. My older brother, everyone thought he wasn't gonna be a short little skinny boy but grew up and became quite tall and grew some muscle in the marines. I'm nearly as tall as him now. and he's like 6,1. My cousin was also expected to be short. In a span of around 3 months he seemed to catch up to me. But he's not. My friend uhh well he seemed to be outgrowing me. But then I caught up to him and now I'm taller. My point being, it depends on your genetics. Growth and growth spurts are determiend by them. your height may increase from centimeters to inches. And in the rare cases, a foot (it happened to my cousin).
Why is my Jack Dempsey not growing?
I have a Jack Dempsey Cichlid currently living in a 55 gallon tank, all to himself for the past year and a half. He was originally living with a Raphael Catfish for a couple months, but i found a new home for the catfish. I do regular water changes, with purified water and clean the tank accordingly. The JD's diet consists of flakes (not the best choice, but he loves them) pellets, freeze dried shrimp and the occasional feeder fish (they are quarantined first). He also will eat small pieces of lettuce at times, but does not always eat it when i put it in the tank. The filtration in the tank is good, and the tank cycles fine. There is plenty of hiding places for the JD, along with enough room for him to swim. The problem I am having is that my JD has remained at roughly 2 in. for the past year He grew quickly in the beginning, but slowly growth began to taper off. He color is not as vibrant as I have seen on other JD's. I have done water tests, and my local pet store has also done water tests and the parameters seem fine. I keep the water at right about 76 degrees. He will eat 3 times a day, and will even come right up to my fingers to grab the food. I have done a lot of research and I believe that I have set up a good environment for this JD (If i am wrong please correct me). But I am curious as to why the fish has not grown much in the past year. I believe his diet is diet and environment are adequate, and he seems healthy. Please let me know.
