What determines your height?

Description

Is your height predetermined from the moment you're conceived or do other factors play a role, like what happens to you in the womb and as you grow up? Dr Jacky Hewitt is a Paediatric Endocrinologist at Monash Children's Hospital, Peninsula Health and the Epworth Hospital as well as a Senior Lecturer at Monash University. She chats to Libbi Gorr about the long and the short of your height.
