Will I grow any taller??

Question

I'm 13, and I'm about 5'0. I've had my period for around 2 years, and I haven't grown any taller. I remember before I got my period, I was shooting up, but now, I haven't grown in months.
Will I stay this height forever??? I really don't want to be 5'0 for the rest of my life! Is there anything I can do to grow taller??

Answer 1

Genetics determine how tall you will get. Check-out your female relatives (mom, sister or aunt), this will give you a better idea how tall you might get & when they stopped growing... :)

Answer 2

>>>* Hey What's up Man, my friends call me Skippy. I know RIGHT where you are now, as I was once there, and I can tell you first hand that it is ABSOLUTELY possible to grow in height after you thought you were done growing forever. Perhaps my own story could be of some help to you...

My family has been in the aviation business since the 1960's. There has been pilots, engineers, baggers, stewards, and of course stewardesses. I never really had much of an interest in piloting or working as an engineer, but I LOVE the sky, and being on airplanes. I had already traveled to 12 different countries by the age of 21. So for me, being a Steward(flight attendant) was always my dream job. The only problem, however, is that there are height requirements for safety reasons. As I was exceptionally short in height- my college degree, and qualified resume meant nothing. I was denied my first job as a flight attendant because I was about 2 inches short of their requirements. This absolutely devastated me. I thought my dream had gone out the window. I was also embarrassed, it was sort of like not being able to get on a ride at an amusement park because I was too small. Which has actually happened to me, btw. Lol. But this was worse, this was my dream career, and future at stake.

At this point, I began scowering the web for help. First I tried seeing if there was a way, some way, to get around the height requirement mandated by airliners. The answer was a big fat NO. Once I had determined there was no way around it, I started feeling hopeless, and desperate. THAT'S when I started looking into the seemingly ridiculous idea that you could continue growing, even after you were finished with puberty. So, after hours and hours of research, reading countless reviews and testimonials, I did come across one website - http://www.growtall.pcti-system.com .. A natural height-growth program that caught my eye. Setting my inherent skepticism aside for a moment, I signed up for the site. Now, fast forward a few months after learning and utilizing all the material and support in the program, I actually grew 3 INCHES! That's no lie. Dead serious. I have since re-applied for the job I would have otherwise gotten if I had met the height requirement. They don't even believe me, lol! They have not set me up for another interview, but that's Ok. If not them, I will have my dream job soon with another airliner as this time I won't have to worry about coming up short. No pun intended! lol.

Anyways, I hope my story was of some help to you, and I wish you the best!

Answer 3

I actually used the program that "Skippy" guy speaks of. It really does work. That same website, http://www.growtall.pcti-system.com .. I played Women's basketball in college, and I used that to gain a couple in height. A total of 2.5 inches. After that, it seemed to plateau though. I could not gain any more than 2 1/2, no matter how hard I tried. But those inches really gave me an advantage in my games. Well worth it.

Answer 4

Of course you will. At an average, people stop growing at 16 or 18. Basketball or any other exercises can help you grow taller. Just eat a healthy diet and a run around frequently. I dare say you will start seeing the effect sooner or later, happening to me right now. =D

Answer 5

You'll keep growing till your 20. A lot depends on the height of your parents, and on the height of their parents.
Also, drink 3 glasses of milk a day, eat your veggies and protein. Good posture can add 2 inches yo your height! Don't believe if anyone tells you that yoga makes you taller. It just teaches you to stretch, which is good, but it tends to give you better posture. Pretend there's a hook coming out of the top of our head. Good luck, and don't stress about it! Enjoy whatever you are given. :)

Answer 6

If you are asian, your height is fine.

But, you will still grow tall naturally unless you are already 21 y/o. While you are at that age, you can take in "CHERIFER" or anything related. This will help you gain height and good immune system. It does not guarantee however that you will grow tall as you are dreaming. It still dependent on your genes.

You can also do exercises that are usually shown on television. And, but not advisable, you can take in some drugs/pills - from SMART TV - that can help you gain more height...

Answer 7

Of course, You will grow taller. Puberty still lot do to make grow in your body. You will be fully grown at 18 or so.

Answer 9

You're only 13. Why would you think that you wouldn't grow anymore? You can grow until your early-mid twenties, so be patient, 13 is VERY young!

Answer 10

you might not. i stopped growing after i got my period (i was 11). but i was tall for age when i was 11(i was like 5,4).and i haven grown since. and this is rubbish when people are saying you don't stop growing till 21. maybe for guys. but girls usually stop growing when they start menstruating
