I'm just 13, and I'm only 4'10"!!!!!
I have enough calcium, I'm athletic and I eat lots of good food and avoid junk food a lot! I'm really really healthy and I have good nutrition but I barely even grew!?
So why does this happen?
And what DOES make you taller?

Weoll, my mom isn't too short, not too tall, but no exactly average either. Maybe a bit on the short side, around the middle of 5 feet??? My dad is about average, I think maybe a teensy bit taller.

I'm not so disappointed about my height. But I'm curious, really what makes you tall because I don't believe drinking 5 glasses of milk a day wouldn't do it.

Okay, well, my Mom tells me to go to sleep around 10 because that's when this hormone is relased that makes you grow but I never do sleep around that time, maybe that's why?

Fact: throughout your life you will constantly generate human growth hormone. Maintaining your bodies chemical balance and cell rejuvenation are two main reasons your body generates HGH. Whether you are looking forward to increasing your linear height, developing bone density, or regenerating your bone cells human growth hormone can be manufactured in great amounts and is distributed most often during certain periods of your life. There are a number of factors that, if manipulated correctly, will substantially increase growth hormone levels in your body.

HGH (Human Growth Hormone) can also be taken directly as a sort of growth booster, but has some negative side fx.

There is also a Therapy where the bones are broken and pulled apart and then grow back together lengthening slightly.

Height is based on genetics, honey, so it's whether your mom and dad are the taller or shorter types. At 13, you have a growth spurt coming up next year, so just wait it out. Be patient. It sounds like you live a good healthy lifestyle, so be sure to keep that up. Take a look at your parents, older brothers, uncles...typically, you can expect to end up an inch or two taller than your dad. Take care, kiddo, and relax, don't stress yourself about something you can't do anything about.

Well, as far as the "getting taller" part. Nothing. Love yourself. Or, you can pay.....see, what the CAN do is a surgery procedure that I'm not sure if they do this in the USA or not, but the break your legs and add length to your existing legs. Very Very painful from what I hear. And, I don't think the success rate is all that great either. You look at some of the little people, or the Drawfs. I had the pleasure of talking to a man that was barely 4 ft tall, and he told me some horror stories of what some people would do to be taller. Love what you are, and who you are. Your body is yours. You only get this one, so love it or be miserable. Your choice

The only thing that will make you taller is time. Some people get growth spurts at 12, others at 15 or older. You just have to keep doing what you're doing to take care of yourself, and be patient. And if all else fails, remember - good things come in small packages!

The type of clothes you wear can make you appear taller. Also high heels. But really, don't you have some good qualities that are more important than this?

Accept and be proud of who and what you are. Don't worry about the distance between your brain and your toes. Believe me, your height puts no limits on your value as a person, nor on your potential to do great and wonderful things.

GET STARTED NOW, and tomorrow, you won't even think about it.

You're only 13, you've got more growing to do, so relax and wait. If you find yourself still short at 21 or so, you can go to China and have surgery done. They cut your shin bones in two and attacch braces to the outside of your legs with screws. Over the period of a year or so, they extend the braces bit by bit to lengthen your legs. As the break in the bones lengthen, the bones grow longer by repeatedly healing the small space cut between them. Very painful and expensive, but you'll get another 4 inches or so. (You can see this on the National Geographic channel or website, they did a story on how people modify their bodies). Other than that, you're stuck.

You might have a later growth spurt. If you're not yet menstruating, you'll probably get a bit taller. How tall are your parents? That's an indication, too.

I wouldn't worry about it unless you were set on becoming a basketball player.
