I'd be willing to bet that you'll grow about three more inches. That will take you to 5'7". YOu can always have your parent(s) take you to a doctor. They can do a measurement of certain bones and give you a good prediction. But remember, it's not just vitamins, it's protein and fat that makes you tall. There was a study that found that vegetarians (from infancy) don't get as tall as those who eat animal proteins. But they are still healthy and can be quite athletic. \n\nJust wanted to add, I'm pretty tall for a woman, but I was not just attracted to tall men but also men who were shorter than me who had a strong physical presence and confidence that made up for their stature.

if you're in your teens or early 20s, there are dietary supplements that claim they can help you grow. My son has been taking http://www.heightmax.com/index.htm... for a couple months and he has grown after being 5' 5" for well over a year. Whether or not he would have started growing again at this point in time (he's about to turn 15) no one can say; but it's mostly vitamins and he's had no side effects, so we'll keep using it.

Its not true that if you play basketball/volleyball you grow taller. Its just a superstition.\n\nI'm pretty sure that there is no way to make you taller naturally. Its all genes but youre just 13, you should still grow.

not unless there are health risks involved with your height, such as genetic problems or deterioration probs.   nice shot though!

Yes, you are tall for your age.  There is a possibility that you could reach 6 ft. tall, but there's also the chance that you grew much faster than others at an early age and will quit growing soon.  That's what happened to my cousin.  She was 5'7 at 13, but she only grew an inch and a half more in the year after that and then stopped.

I saw you have asked allot of questions 'bout getting taller. And that you are only 15.\nYou have still 5 more years until you are fully grown. Even tho' your family is short, you might have genes that says you will be taller. All my family got dark hair, but I got light hair. you don't know until your body is done developing. Stop worrying about your growth for now, and enjoy life! Get a new hobby or something. \n\nAnd remember, if you end up short, falling will be less painful as you are closer to the ground ;-)

calcium would probably be the only thing that MIGHT help... it'll just make your bones stronger but it might promote a little growth.  nothing makes you taller besides genetics.  there is however a shot that you can get every so often that is supposed to make you gain a few inches.  you would have to talk to your doctor about the growth hormones. set up an appointment and as long as you're healthy your doctor wont have a problem with giving you the growth hormones. they generally make you grow 2-3 inches taller

I do think you are tall.I'm not sure if you will keep growing but I do know one of my male cousins stayed at 5'8" until he was 18-20 when he grew a few more inches to 6'.

There is a possiblity you'll grow taller.  My son is over 6' tall, and his dad and I are no where near that height.

If you are still at school you should be still growing and its a well known fact that a growing body needs to be fed with correct nutrition\nso talk to your parents about this that is if they claim you

there's a chance- my family is all around 5'10 and my brother sprung up at about 16 to 6'4

Height is determined by your DNA, mostly. Secondly, it is influenced by your nutrition.\n\nAny pill that could make you grow would have to alter your DNA - which those pills don't do. And even if they could, do you wanna risk your DNA to some entity on the Net claiming you can get a couple inches?

how tall are your parents? look at them to see how much more you may grow. since you are only 13 you will still be growing for the next 7-8 years!

I think your chances are pretty high of being 6'4 beacuse I'm 15 and only 5'6, which is normal, and your 13 being 5'11 you'll be 6'4.

It depends on what your definiton of short is.  You are only fourteen.  You have about four more good years of growing to do!  How tall is your mom and dad?  You will probably take after them.  Until you are done growing(and after)make sure to get lots of calcium, take a multivitamin, and make sure to get lots of excercise.  Also dont drink to many caffeinated pops or coffee. They deplete your bones of calcium
