Your height is genetically determined. You cannot do anything to make yourself grow any taller than your genes say you will. \n\nSevere cases of malnutrition can cause you to not reach your full heigh potential. Even with bullimia, that's unlikely to happen. You certainly should eat properly and get proper, complete nutrition. But no, calcium won't make you grown taller and neither will any other particular nutrient. You just have to stay healthy so you'll reach your normal height. That's all you can do.

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.

To be sure you could go to a growth specialist, but my guess is that you will grow to be at least on the shorter end of average. Don't expect to be NBA tall, but also don't worry so much about your height, you are many years before your growth stops.

you really cant increase your heighth. If you take a good source of vitamins and are under 21 it will help increase your hiegth!

there is nothing you can do to get taller , being only 13 your body is not finished maturing and depending  on your family genetics whether they are tall or short will determine your muscular structure.

Don't worry about it so much.  You will start getting taller in high school.  Then all sorts of changes will happen.  Don't rush growing up!  You can't reverse the process, so enjoy it while you're young!  Best wishes...Millie

Pay attention to stimulants and reduce them (sodas, coffee, methlyphindate.)  Other than that, it is what it is.  You don't give your height, but you've already topped your folks- any other taller relatives?

Yes if you eat protein, it can help you grow muscles. To grow taller if you are still growing, eat lots of different foods.

Well, this probably isn't the answer you want to hear, but you're boned, no pun intended.\n\nThe thing is, you may continue to grow a little taller, but in all likelihood the growth plates on the ends of your bones have already calcified and permanently fused themselves in position, setting your skeleton in its final form (it usually happens by the time you're 18).\n\nOnce that happens, you simply cannot increase your bone size any more.  Not ever.\n\nIt's not even a matter of taking supplements to encourage growth, or taking drugs to encourage growth.  The part of your body which does the growing is no longer there once your bones decide they're done.  There's nothing for the drugs to have an effect on.\n\nThere are some surgeries which you might be able to do where, in essence, a doctor saws the legs in your bones in half, and pins the two pieces in place an inch or two apart so when they heal, they fill in new bone in the gap (leaving you that much taller), but that's seriously traumatic, takes months to heal, leaves awful scars, and isn't an option most people would go for.\n\nBottom line is, this may just be how tall you were meant to be... but like other posters have said, a lot of people find girls your size very attractive, so relax and feel beautiful just like you are, because chances are someone else will feel that way, too.

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

That is who you are. You can change some things through surgery, but why? You are special and unique as you are. I'm only 4'11" tall, and I used to wish and wish that I would grow taller. Well, I didn't, and now I accept that I can't change it. Be happy with who you are! :-)

If you're 17 years old, then you might still grow, just wait. There is nothing you can do to make yourself taller.

The best way to grow taller is to eat nutritious food and excercise. Because of your age, you may be nearing your last spurt of growth. It is important that during this last spurt of growth, you excercise and eat healthily because this might be your last chance to grow taller. You may be able to grow up to an inch.
