I think there is one solution. If you play basketball as a hobby, there is one chance that your bones might stretch a bit higher. Another way is drinking a lot of milk because it gives you calcium.

Unless you started puberty on the late side, like 13 or 14, It doesn't seem likely. If you've been keeping track of your height, plot it out on a piece of paper. If you are still growing faster and faster, then you'll probably grow much taller. But if you gained less in the last year than you did the year before, you should learn to enjoy the height you got.

Yes u still can... Because we are still growing till the age of 23 or 24 if i'm not mistaken... I suggest u to play basketball more often... I have a friend who is 5'8" (same height as me) and that was when we were 17, now we are 19 and he's 6ft plus... ( A head taller than me )... See how much diff is that... Because he play basketball almost everyday...

Probably not, but it depends on the person. I'm 5' 4 1/2" and I stopped growing at 14. Have you grown much in the past 2-3 years? Or in the past year? This might give you a better idea if you will grow any more. If you've grown in the past year you might still grow more. If you haven't grown in the past year, or especially for the past two years you are probably done.

When i was 17, i was 5`7. Now i am 20 and yet i am still 5`7.
Live with being short. it sucks but you cant do anything about it. Its always sad looking up at people.
You want to be 6foot so badly, then you can have surgery and extend you legs a bit but that is a dumb idea if you ask me.

Possible. Michael Jordan was told he was too short in high school to play basketball at 6 feet. He grew 4 more inches from then to sophomore in college. So. yes. You could grow---or not. Try not to be too concerned. I Iike guys who aren't too tall. Lots of us girls do. Personality, humour, interests, looks and many other factors play in. Look at Tom Cruise. He's a little shrimp and he seems to get the girls?

nope. when u are 17 u are pretty much done growing. U may get an inch or 2 taller but thats about it.

you may continue growing until you are 18 but it is unlikely you will grow much more as you would have already had your main growth spurt during mid puberty (15-16yrs old)

it depends on when you started your growing spurt. some kids continue to grow until 18 or 19 if they hit puberty late.
