Is it true that lack of sleep can stunt your growth? If so can getting the right hours of sleep "un-stunt" growth?

I think stunted growth is pretty much a one way street. If you're young enough to still have growth spurts it might not be too late.

"A single night of no sleep will not stunt growth. But over the long term, a person's growth may be affected by not getting the full amount of sleep. That's because growth hormone is normally released during sleep. If someone consistently gets too little sleep (known as "sleep deprivation"), growth hormone is suppressed." https://kidshealth.org/en/teens/sleep-growth.html
