Unfortunately, the only way you can ensure that is buy platform shoes...It is genetics you can not make yourself taller. You can ensure you stay taller by standing with proper posture, and do not avoid calcium...you need healthy bones to support your frame...otherwise when you are old and have osteoporosis, you will begin to crouch over and be even shorter. Not sleeping well is not gonna help either, you need to eat right, sleep well and exercise if you want strong bones to grow and support you....Hey 5'3" isn't bad, you can be the cute little flier on the cheer squad. Lastly, your period has nothing to do with your height but you could continue to grow until you are 18 or 19 yrs old...honestly, then again you could quit growing this yr (13 or 14 yrs old)

Well not proper rest n not the proper foods (vitamins & minerals) will lead u nowhere.
Try drinking lots of milk (or anything w/ calcium),
play some basketball. Being 13 y/o n 5'3'' is not that bad 4 a girl ur age.
PS: Sometimes this can b a genetic issue...R ur parents tall?

you're inbetween the fiftieth and seventy 5th percentile to your age meaning you're taller than 50% - seventy 5% of folk your age yet in view which you stated you have been turning 14 in 2 months you're fortieth or fiftieth percentile

When I was 13, I was 5'1 and now I am 5'9 at 17...so I guess you grow :) But my dad is 6'6 so that might have something to do with it, ha-ha. Pick me for best answer <3 Tiffanie

Its never going to happen. there is nothing you can do to make yourself taller. You won't stop growing until you are in your 20s.

you cant just make yourself grow taller, its impossible. but there are several ways to look taller. wear high heels if you can stand them. just eat healthy and nature will take its course.

You just have to wait.
You'll grow until you're 18. Be patient.

This is a health question. Ask your family doctor.
