i'm ALOT older than you lol and I'm only 5'2". It never bothered me except always having to shorten my jeans. Maybe it's different for a bloke to be short but why worry so much, build your character not your height, be a success and good luck.

you're not done growing yet. And that's fine for your age. You can keep growing until you're 20.
It's different for females, but I grew a 1/4 an inch sometime between ages 18 and 20.
there's nothing wrong with your height. Just make sure you eat your veggies, fruits, and just eat well overall. Stay away from too much coffee (caffeine) and sodas. Be happy with who you are. Play up your good qualities and no one will care what height you are......I don't. :)

dont be silly. Height is genetic you cant control it with medication. I am a woman of 5' 10'' and people stare at me when I wear heels coz I am 6' but what the you know what, dont be obsessed with it. Cant swear I will get another violation notice lol.

What in the hell is wrong with some of you people? Are you too lazy to do a simple search on Google or the archives of this forum? This question is asked about every 10 questions.
THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO INCREASE YOUR HEIGHT. You will grow naturally with a well balanced diet and nutrients. Accept what your height will be. You have no other choice.

there are growth hormones but there are risks to using them
unfortunately height is genetically predetermined
5'8" is not too short
good things come in small packages and you may still grow an inch or two at your age

You don't need them since your height is quite average. I'm 34 and only 5'4". At your age I was less than five feet tall. I did receive treatment at age 15, but it was testosterone shots, not growth hormone.

Dude, I'm 12 and almost 5 foot 2. since ur 5 years younger than me, and also more than 5 inches taller, I think you're fine. Try consulting your doctor on this matter; its much more efficent!
