there is really nothing you can do, I'm 25 and I'm only 5'5 so just be happy being short

I am 27 and also 5 foot. They can only make you taller when you are a teenager with growth hormones. I'm afraid its too late. May I suggest platform shoes covered up by long trousers. Works a treat for creating the illusion of being taller.

There isn't really anyway to make yourself taller. There are a lot of products you can buy but I wouldn't waste your money on them. You can have surgery where they put rods in your legs but with you being 5ft already I don't think they would do it.
I think you just have to accept what mother nature has given you or failing that you could wear stilettos! (if you are female that is).

Of course you can, 20 years old is not an end to your growth, you can play Basketball or Volly ball for a year or two and will notice a big differnce, with reasonably healthy food like Milk, eggs and calcium rich fruits and nuts... :)

are u male or female. beacuse guys keep growing till they are 21 and females stop growing at 18. drinks lots of milk because that strengthens your bones. i'm not sure if their is anything else that can make u grow. u may have to learn to love your height.

im 20 years old and im 5 ft. it aint a problem- guys like short girls coz they are 'cute' and if ur a bloke (coz I dont know) dnt worry either coz tom cruise is short and he has no trouble pulling! My advice is just dont get fat coz short and fat is a bad combination- stay slim and u wont look too strange!

first, proper posture would help., next do some stretching exercises, then ask a professional consultant on what to take to grow taller.
