This is an easier quicker way. Take the height of your father in inches. Add the height of your Mother.Add 5 inches if male, subtract 5 inches if female. Divide by 2. That is how tall you will be within 2 inches either way. In my experience on LOTS of people, it usually hits smack on your original answer!

Yes, there is a way they can guess at your height. But, keep this in mind. The doctor's said I'd be 5'10". I'm 29 years old, fully grown obviously and I'm only 5'3"

X-rays of the long bones will show the growth plates.  You can see growth plates in the femur, tibia, fibula, humerus, ulna and radius.  I have never done an x-ray to see if the plates are closed in order to determine further growth.  If we are wondering about bone age, we do an x-ray of the hands/wrists for that.

Base on study, human growth/height velocity is based on genetic and growth. As per the sample chart in the attached website, your projected height will be as follows:\n\nAgeHeight\n135'11\n146'2\n156'5\n166'7\n176'8\n186'8\n196'9\n206'9\n\nDo let me know if this is correct.

Normal weight depends on your height and build. Ask your doctor or local health department for a growth chart if you would like to track your development.

There's an "Ideal Body Weight" calculator on this page (designed for parents, but you can obviously use it for the same purpose). Just put in your age, height, and current weight and it'll tell you where you fall in comparison to the average or ideal weight. \n\nhttp://pediatrics.about.com/cs/growthcharts2/l/bl_ibw_calc.htm?gender=NaN&age=NaN&months=NaN&feet=NaN&inches=NaN&inches_percent=NaN&pounds_100=NaN&pounds_10=NaN&pounds=NaN&pounds_percent=NaN&page=1

eating healthy foods and having enough sleep.\n\nmost people think that you need to have enough calcium, but they actually don't know that calcium doesn't actually help you growing taller for it only goes to the calcium depository inside your bones with the help of osteocytes. therefore calcium is for your bone mass and not bone length, but still needed for your bone mass if ever you got taller. ;)\n\nand by the way, the part which really makes us longer are those of the ones interconnected to other bones with the ligaments, etc. for those are the reasons why bones extend from their normal sizes. i can't recall the term, let me tell you when i get back to my house for my book, im in summer vacation right now.

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!

Actually, as an xray tech, they do one of your wrist and your hand.  You have 8 bones in your wrist. These are the carpal bones.  Most babies aren't born with them so they develop over time.  If they see your carpal bones are or aren't developed that can tell you how far ahead you are in growth/how far behind you are. They use those body parts and compare them to the normal for someone your exact age.  It's just a uniform part of the anatomy from an xray standpoint.  It will be of your left hand and/or wrist and is most likely called a Bone Age Study.  Probably the easiest xray u will ever have. all you do is sit there with your hand on the table :)

A BMI (Body Max Index)calculation  may help. It can tell you if you are in the average weight for your height. This is by no means a perfect measure, as it doesn't take into account individual factors, like %muscle, body shape, but is usually accepted as a reasonable comment on body shape\n\nThe calculation is in Imperial weights\nBMI = (Weight in Pounds divide by      \n(Height in inches) x (Height in inches)) x 703 \n\nMetric\nBMI = Weight in Kilograms divide by           \n(Height in Meters) x (Height in Meters) \n\nA figue between 19 and 25 is a normal healthy weight\n\nI've also included an online calculator to do the calculation for you. The top link is imperial measures, the bottom is metric

Just eat healthy and drink a lot of water and Vitamin D milk for strong bones. Don't worry, you will grow eventually. A lot of boys take longer to grow tall and strong. Even basketball players that are well known today took long to grow. Some were 5'0 tall and all of a sudden they grew so tall in a few months or years. Just be patient and stop strssing over it. You will grow, that's human nature.  If you had a problem your doctor would have told you that already. You're fine, you don't have to look like anyone else but yourself :)
