I understand that you're upset about being shorter, but you also need to realize how lucky you are that you do not suffer from dwarfism or other growth related illnesses.
i also think that you aren't going to be any happier emotionally if you're 5 foot 4 versus being 4 foot 8.
also, most doctors will not prescribe growth hormones to someone who has no medical condition.
Some things to consider:
1)growth hormones are expensive
2)they only come in shot form (I took care of a girl who had to inject growth hormones into her thigh every day. it was very painful for her.)
BEST OF LUCK

It sounds like you are going to be of shorter stature your whole life. There are no pills that are going to help you grow taller at age 13. There are hormones that they give small children, but not any for teenagers. Embrace your size and learn to live with it. Everyone is different.

yes growth hormones. I believe there are many side affects. You still have a lot of time to grow in your life time. Give it some time. Besides I think men like petite women :)

Not much you can do. You are a slave to your genetics. There are no pills, there is nothing you can really do...If there was anything, don't you think that some of the little people would have done it? Now there are some cases where they will put rods in a little persons legs...but it is rare and very painful.

Pills do not make you taller. This is what you need to do.... Get work outs! Don't waorry I'm so short to. I'm 4'7! Drink milk and become healthy!

You will be the height that you are genetically programmed to be. There are not pills, exercises, foods or any other gimmicks that can change that.
