At this point it is pretty well all over with for you. Unless you can convince a doctor that there is something wrong with you and that you need growth hormones or surgery there really isn't anything that you can do yourself.
You need to stop looking at what you don't have and start looking at everything good you do have.

You would need to find a doctor who would actually do this; they are out there, but most won’t do it. What they do is break you legs and then set them like an inch longer than they were {no clue about the real distance, that is just a guess} and then let it heal, you then repeat the process till you get to the height that you would like.
I have never heard about it being done to someone as tall as you are though, it is done to help out midgets in extreme circumstances and when they have enough money just to get it done because they want to, but it is very painful. You need to want to do it very bad, be able to afford it and be able to tolerate the pain over long periods of time repetitively.
I do not recommend it; 5'2" is not that bad.

Umm...are you a male or female? Supposedly males have two growth spurts in their life and the ones that hit the second spurt later in life usually are the taller ones. And I heard that could be up to the age of 21.
But for girls. Ha...I don't really know. Ridiculous since I am a girl.
Or you could just love being 5'2" because some of us aren't so lucky. I wish I was shorter than 5'5". Instead I am between 5'7"-5'8".

there might be a chance to grow another 5mm but people usually stop gaining height by the time there your age (between 18 and 22) so theres not much you can do unless your rich then it might be possible by having your bones surgically broken and stretched mechanically

Nothing. Your height is genetically predetermined. I guess you could get a mideval rack torture machine and manually stretch your bones, but that would be very painful and would only help a little.

I assume you are female, there is nothing wrong with your height. and no, I don't think you can make yourself grow any taller.
