Well, my brother was short, and so to help him grow he started taking Zinc and he sprouted up a little. When he wasn't taking it him and is other sister, who is younger by 3 yrs, were about the same height. Now he is taller by 2-4 inches. Maybe more.

Females stop growing at around 18-19, and males 20-21. Your final height depends on your parents, so take a look at mum and dad. How much more you will grow depends on your individual stage of puberty. Generally though, you would have done the brunt of your growing at the beginning of puberty; usually 11-12 for girls and boys 14-15.

I'm sure this is a misprint. 1.73 cm is less than an inch. What are you, a worm? I should hope you will grow!

Yeah you could get taller but generally people can only get an inch taller every year.

It's nothing to do with your diet or sport because today most of us not starving any more. it is relate to your generic state. lots of Chinese think they are short and do bone extention in hospitals. ouch.....

Go to the Doctor and have him take x-rays to see if your growth plates have closed...
