Im 5'8" also and have been that height since ur age. Im now 21 and trust me pal, no form of vitamins or supplement will enduce ur growth. I Had never even thought of trying to take sumthing to make me grow taller. Sure I can say that at ur age I was thinking "humm..have i stopped growing? Can't I at least be 5'10" or sumthing". But I didnt grow any taller and Im happy with my height. U too should be also! 5'8" is an average height. If u havent had any extra growth spurts after turning 18 then u probably wont go getting much taller. 21 usually is the cut off growth point for the male body. And like I said before, I stopped at 19 on the 5'8" mark.
Height doesnt change who u r or what u can do/accomplish.
If it helps ur self esteem at all, ask urself this k. Whats the cut off height in male models!? Its usually 5'11". Well I myself AM a male model and am only 5'8". They didnt even see my height as an issue seeing as I had other attributes that they looked for. Personality being a major part! Sure its an issue for catwalk gigs, but that pays crap and is the least type of work offerd to men in that industry. Photographic is the real deal and thats where Im posted. What I am trying to put across to u is, dont worry about ur height. Ur fine at 5'8". Its who u R that counts kid. Remember that.

People differ so greatly in growth. Some stop their main growth at earlier, or later. You very well may have stopped growing, but there are indeed some people who get their growth spurt in college. My stepdad, for instance, was 5'7", 5'8" in high school, but by the end of college, he grew to 6'2". The human body doesn't stop growing (as very little as it may be, or as great as it may be) until the mid-twenties.

My friend went for back treatment in his 50's, and they stretched him so he became an inch and a half taller.
