If you are female, no you won't grow any more. And five foot two is ONLY two inches below average. Go get a ruler and look at how much two inches is. It's nothing. You're just fine.

If you are male, be patient, and put it out of your mind. There is nothing you can do to affect how tall you grow. You may or may not grow any more.

You are not just a combination of your parents charactoristics, but have to look at their parents and you great grandparents to get an idea of the possibilities of how talk you'll grow.

Also, most people do not reach their full height until they are around age 25. Growth isn't always constant.

I was five feet tall, starting in sixth grade and never grew again until I was 19, then I grew three more inches in just a few short months.

Just take good care of your body, never starve or you will stunt your growth. Eat healthy and continue to exercise and you're body will grow if your body is ment to grow taller.

Enjoy live and be happy if you are healthy; if you grow you grow if not, it's okay.

its ok lol to be only 5'2 and 15 or 16. lol im 15 in gr. 10 and about the same height! my doctor said im supposed to grow a lot though because i have long fingers and toes. relax. you dont ACTUALLY stop growing until you're about 20. sometimes older. if your parents are tall, chances are, you'll be too. i know, i have the same problem. we've both appeared to notice no difference in height. but it'll happen. you just have to be patient :) it'll start up again eventually. :D

Eat nourishing food with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables being part of it. Chew each morsel at least 32 times. This will activate signal to the brain as soon as u have had enough. Besides this change in eating style, take regular light exercises and brisk walks every day. U will be able to gain/shed all extra weight gracefully and in a reasonable time span. Ur height is predetermined by ur genes ingrained in the dna.

Sorry but the real answer is no. People will tell you about playing basketball and eating meat etc but that's just bullshit.
You should perhaps wait till you are a little older before deciding you have definitely attained your maximum height though.

well if you do workout at a very early age, u rili wont grow anymore. cause your muscles will be tightened already in you bones. Thus, stopping the growth process.

it also has something to do with the growth hormone, u must be lacking of it.

well im 15 y/o and i stand 5'11 to 6 ft. I kinda hate myself cause most of the girls in our place are rili short. ;]

Growth hormones, a friend of mine took them when he was young and now he's in the NHL. His parents gave them to him! I wouldn't really recommend it though, you might be messed up later in life. You'll catch up.

hang from your arms 3 times a day and you should grow after a month or so
