I was 6 6 in the sixth grade then quit growing by the time I hit 18 years of age I was 6 7. Most men stop growing around 21 years old. you have a good chance of being very tall.
Good luck

Hey 5'8" for a 13 year old is dam good .Yes you can become taller if you are a volley ball or basket ball player ,apart from genes your personal and physical activities also count ,so go ahead and play your way to reach the height you desire ,which I cannot promise, but will assure you that it is possible naturally.
To achieve those impossible heights in other methods is to get your self operated ,which is very pain full and time consuming and don't think it is worth the trouble/cost too.wishing you all the best in reaching the HEIGHTS you like to reach .Bye and God Bless you.

As they say anything is possible. It will depend on genetics. Just keep healthy and in good physical shape. All you can do is let nature and genetics take its course. My son grew 7 inches in one year when he was 14. He topped out at 6'2'. Not 6'7' but taller than my 6'0'.

If you just turned 13 you have many years of growing left to do. Be patient, Im sure you will top at about 6'+

At 13 you may still keep growing. Men don't stop growing until their late teens. It could be possible. Do you have a really tall dad?

it's possible...but you never know. if both of your parents are reasonably tall, then you've got a better chance at being tall yourself. i'd say that you're already pretty tall for 13!
my sister is around 5'10" and her husband is around 6'. their four boys are all over 6'6" tall! but everybody is different!
good luck!

you really stop growing at about 18 years old, so you still have 5 years to grow. and if your already 5' 9'', then chances are, you will make it to about 6 '6''

Hey unfortunatly your height is alot like gambling there is no mathematical equation that allows you to solve that question its all about your genes, chance and if your cells that control height go through Mitosis enough times!! but im rooting for you!!!

It's very possible for you to reach that height. When I was 14 years old, I grew six inches in one year.
