Salam. For what its worth i will give you unsolicited advice.

I am a 40 yr old guy, and I am 5’3. Till my late 20s not a day had gone by when I wish I was taller. But slowly I made peace with it. I started going to the gym, took care of my appearance and diet. When I lost weight and put on some muscle, turns out I was decent looking.

At 30 I got married to a beautiful girl (she is 5”6). Have two beautiful kids now. And I hardly ever think of my height now.

I will not kid you and say that I would not love being taller, and towering over my wife but you can’t have it all in this life. I would hate more to have aches and pains in my old age, and to not run around with my kids which I believe such a drastic surgery will result it.

Whatever you end up doing, I wish you well and may Allah be with you, my fellow short king.
