Go down to your local provision store and inquire about this.\n\nMost sell powder you can mix with water and drink, which helps you grow taller.\n\nBut I don't recommend this cos it may produce side effects like overgrowth or uneven growth.

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

Your height is predetermined by your genetic makeup.  There is nothing you can do to increase it.

You might not ever be taller, but then again, who knows?\n\nYour ability to grow taller usually ends when you're between 21 and 25 years of age.  Most of this isn't something you can have much control over.\n\nI would learn to accept and love your body as God gave it to you.  My husband is 5ft 6 inches, and I love every bit of him.

You physically cannot!\nYou stopped growing long ago!\nGet some shoes with lifts in.

Sorry there’s nothing to do now.\nThe development begins with the birth and reached its apex during the adolescence time.\nDuring that time, physicians can intervene with some specific drugs (hormones) with a fairly possibility to increase a bit the height. During that time, some specific sports (swimming, volley, etc.) can help too.  \nNow your skeleton and bones have already reached their max length and fixed definitively.  \nOnly a miracle could satisfy you!

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.

You cannot make yourself grow faster nor can you make yourself grow taller than you are genetically programmed to grow it is all down to your genes

You can't gain height like that.\nIt's genetics and enviroment together.\nIf you're smoking, drugs etc stop it. Eat a lot of foods full with calcium and hope for the best.\nIf your mom and dad are short or at your height.. Most chances you'll stay at the same height.\nIf you're in the end of your puberty you wont grow much. You can go and take a Xray of your bones, they can tell you what "age" are your bones, this way you can see if your bones have rached their full potential or not.\nTake care.

Naturally?  Then do nothing.  \n\nYou can get a little taller temporarily by doing things like hanging upside down for hours a day and stretching your back.  That's what football players do to get that extra inch for the measurements during the combine.  Not really worth the time though.\n\nBetter to just accept your height and move on.  Height means very little in the long run, and anyone who treats you differently because you're shorter, or taller, than them has their own issues to deal with.  \n\nBesides, shorter people live longer!\n\nGood luck.\n\n**late addition - calcium can't hurt, vitamins can't hurt, and seeing a doctor to examine your growth plates might not be a bad idea.  They should be able to tell you if nature has anything left in the tank for you.

All else being equal, you can't get any taller than your genes dictate.  I'm not tall,  5'9", and have always wished I could get at least to that magical 6 foot tall barrier.  You can make sure that you get to the tallest that your genes will allow by staying healthy, eating properly, getting plenty of rest, etc.\n\n"The height of the person is influenced by many factors, like good nutrition, onset and end of puberty and, most importantly, by the genetic predisposition. Most people by the time they are 19 have stopped growing and reached their final height. By that age growth epiphyses (the areas of the bones in your arms and legs that grow) have closed and the bone cannot get any longer. Unfortunately, once that happened, there is not much you can do to become taller.  \n\nIf you have seen advertisements for products that promise to make you taller, beware, there are no pills or devices that can increase your height.  Try to remember that height is only on aspect of who you are and that you have many qualities that you can control, like how you are as a friend, how hard you work and how you treat other people."

You are lucky you're 5'9" with parents that tall.  They must love you alot. Studies show that children who are nurtured while growing can grow taller.  Hug your parents and drink milk, stay away from caffeine.

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.

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.

You can't... height is basically genetic.  The fads out there that suggest that you can become taller or shorter through product or excersize are mainly myth.

You could ask your doctor, but I think it all depends on heredity (your genes).  \n\nA simple trick to appearing taller:  stand and sit up straight.  If you slouch, you will look shorter.
