Just because you haven't gotten your period doesn't mean you won't stop growing. Don't worry about your height, I suspect that will be as tall as you get and that is a great height.
You will see in high school that you are not the tallest, in fact, kids today are much taller than when I was 13.
Some things you can do; make sure you eat healthy, not getting your period sometimes is related to low body fat. Are you skinny too? You may want to read about increasing your body mass (in a healthy way). Make sure you appreciate who you are, value yourself. Poor self image will lead you down a very bad path so at this age, begin to love who you are because people shorter don't have a better life.
Look at the facts; people who are tall make more money, get more job promotions, are more respected. Sad for short folks, but that is what a study showed. Also, if you aspire to do anything related to fashion, you have a great advantage because models are your height or taller.
When you see how tall the boys are in high school (especially by the time they are seniors) you won't think you are tall anymore. Most boys are at least 6 feet and often keep growing into their 20's.
Take care, stand tall and be proud of the body your parents gave you.

Don't worry. I have a 14 year old daughter who is 6'1"! You are not alone. Britt has always been head and shoulders taller than her friends. You are not a freak, put your height to good use, there is basketball, volleyball, modeling, all kinds of things where being tall is good.

Enjoy your height, other kids haven't caught up with you yet & starting to menstruate won't determine your height.
Check in with your female relatives (mom, sister or aunt), that will give you a clue about your height.
Look at how tall models & athletes are, a women's basket ball team would love to have you. :)

Ask your buddy to exercising first - no longer wellness club yet working, pull united statesand so on. He could carry on with it ideally in morning and if achievable night too. He could provide up all stupid conduct so as that he gets no longer basically top yet wellness too. undergo in innovations, basically top does not help, it would be with wellness and not steroids.

just embrace what you have, just because you havent started doesnt mean that you will keep growing. I got my period a year ago-im 14 and only 5'2. Just try to be happy with what you have, because your stuck with it forever
