Learn to love your body at it's current height. Believe me it is easier to find pants that are long enough at our height!

Milk helps build strong bones not makes u taller. You can still grow even if your only 15 but you won't grow a lot. Try some protein.

Once your growth plates close you do not grow taller. You are only 15 so yes you may grow a little taller but if you don't enjoy your petite status. Drinking milk makes for strong healthy bones but does not make your bones grow per say.

You can add few centimeters till you become 18 years old. Milk is a good source. Try white shredded coconut eat twice a day about 250 gms. each time. Do hanging exercise. Go to the gym and jump on the bar to hang your body,swing for 15 minutes,thrice a day. Stretch your body in morning sunshine. There is no guarantee but it worked for me. I was 5.1" tall at age 15 and following above regime I was 5.8" at age 17. Good luck.

If you have passed puberty then you have stopped growing but if you haven't developed or gone through a large growth spurt then yes you will grow more. As far as milk and juice, I dont think they make a difference, but they cant hurt.

Genetics usually decides how tall you will get. A girl usually grows until she is sixteen. You may be stuck with the rest of us short females, sorry.
