I'm a bit worried about my height because I'm 16 and only 5'3". My dad is around 5'7" or 5'8" and my mom's height ranges between 5'4" and 5'3". I've heard that having a beard at a young age might mean I'm done growing taller, and I have a lot of facial hair. My doctor mentioned that my hand growth plates are fused. Does this mean I can't get any taller or is there still a chance I might grow more?

I'm 20 and my breast size is barely 30 even the smallest cup size is too big. I've tried breast creams, fenugreek, and massages but nothing worked. I eat balanced but it doesn't help. Are there non-surgical ways to increase breast size, like estrogen-boosting injections or other methods?

Estrogen injections are not commonly recommended due to risks.Non-surgical breast enhancement methods usually have limited evidence.A hormonal evaluation might help if development is delayed.
