Question

Hey, I'm 15 and sometimes I masturbate. I've noticed that my height isn't really increasing. I'm currently 5 feet 6 inches and I'm wondering if this could be the reason why I'm not getting taller. Is this something I should be worried about?

Masturbation does not have any direct impact on your height. Height is primarily determined by genetics and overall health. If you are concerned about your height, I recommend focusing on maintaining a balanced diet, regular exercise, and getting enough sleep to support your growth.
