Answer 1

For women most tend to stop growing in height around the age of 18, Men it tends to be later and many can keep growing up to the age of around 23 although most are finished by about 21. You will probably keep growing slowly then have another growth spurt around the age of 16. You might reach 5'10 it is really a guessing game and hereditary. If your parents are tall you will most likely be tall too. Also most children grow taller than their parents. Remember everyone is different, some people develop faster while other's start later. In the end we all get to the same spot. I thought I had stopped growing at the age of 17 because I hadnt in about a year then grew almost an inch in a short space of time. There are lots of changes you will have to go through, dont be in a rush to get it over and done with too quickly - you will get there!!

Possible height increasing game is basket ball and the exercise is rope - skipping Height and weight is genetic Since your father is 5'5" your chances of reaching this height is bright

Answer 3

When the doctor tells you you may have a growth spurt or "shoot up" he is definately not lying.. people continue to grow until they are in their late 20's so you have plenty of time..

Answer 4

if you find a girl in the same age as you, you can look at how hight they are and ask them if they are growing taller quickly. your time should be soon. people usually stop growing at about when they are in their early twenties.
