As long as the plates in your bones have not sealed you have a chance of growing a little more. You can see you doctor about this problem and you may be able take a form of growth hormone to help you grow. Act now because the plates in your long bones responsible for growth will start to close and may be fully closed by your early 20's. After they are closed this option is no longer viable.

You'll grow or you won't: That sort of thing is hard-wired into the genes.

However, not all people grow as much as they *could* because of poor nutrition. Try just plain eating well and taking care of yourself. If nothing else, your health will thank you!

There's a growth hormone they give cattle if you want bigger breasts. If you got a sex change it wouldn't matter if you were short cause it doesn't matter if a girl is short. Other than that, I recommend The Rack....

well..... i know that if you eat while standing you grow..... very slowly though.... stretching alot could help to..... all in all you should drink milk alot because it affects about 10% your height if im not mistaken and eat while standing and get alot of excercise......
