How many inches can it effect?

Post Reply New Topic

Growing up I always had trouble sleeping/sleep disorders.

How many inches taller can lack of sleep when you are a child/teenager effect your maximum height genetic potential?

Dude, I was basically born an insomniac and I'm 6'3" - not all that common in my generation either.

6’3 is very tall I am barely 5’8 myself lol

You're not short either, you're the average height in the UK. What worries you, are your parents significantly taller?

3. 5ft 6in
4. 6ft
5. 5ft 9in

i think my dad was close too 5ft10 when he was younger my mom however is only 5ft1 or 5ft2. my younger brother on the other hand might be 6ft tall

You're fine; unless you're actually shorter than most women you meet, other things will matter more.

I know at least 3 very short guys with gorgeous wives but all are charming personalities and generally fascinating and entertaining people.

I also have a colleague who's barely 5'4", he's not particularly charming or good looking, but he's interesting and somewhat "brooding" - he has 3 kids, 2 ex-wifes and a gorgeous, tall girlfriend who's the maternal type and very protective of him

It's much harder (generally, as an Aspie) if you live in small or very conformist places... Generally speaking, you have to compensate somehow for all the "minuses" (less than average) but if you have the chance of living in a large, varied place you can easily end up meeting women who might appreciate conventional "minuses" as something interesting and out of the ordinary

I haven't heard of lack of sleep corresponding to a decrease in human height. But I do remember that lack of proper nutrition has an impact. One of the effects of major historical famines was the follow on impact on the population height. Many times the generation (children) that survived a major famine were several inches shorter than the generation before or after.
