I’m fourteen years old, so I know I’m not done growing yet, but I seem to be growing slower. I want to make the best of the few years I have left to get taller, so is there any way to make yourself grow taller, and more quickly? I mean I know the whole drinking milk and calcium thing, but is there anything else? Please and thank you!

Well im 14 and 5′10. i want to be really tall. My entire family is very tall. Genetically, i am going to be tall. Is their anything that may possibly help me grow taller; calcium maybe. They say calcium helps you grow. And also, if your answer is going to be that my family and hereditary is going to determine how tall i will be, than what about my diet? if i go anorexic or eat less than i regularly used to, than does that mean im going to grow less. They say that you need food and vitamins to grow. is this true. Please help. Thanks…

I am so sick of being 163cm and looking at my perfect 5′9" model like friends chins and shoulders. I eat a lot of food, lots of protein, carbohydrate and calcium. I am a tad underweight, but thats how I am naturally, I haven’t grown in a year either. My father is tall but my mum is short. A lot of my cousins are really tall, were talking 6′5". My brother is 6′4". I hear that you have to be in a deep sleep at the time 11pm-2am at night bcuz thats when you grow, it’s a bit hard for me when I get into bed at 9pm and lay there for hours as I find it impossible to go to sleep. I usually doze off around midnight. I’ve been doing stretches for a year and increased my calcium and protein, but it’s not working. I don’t really want to take any of them hormones or anything, should I talk to my doctor?

at the beginning of eighth grade i grew some but then i stopped, i am now 5′3 1/2 . i wanna be 5′5 by the end of the summer . my mom is 5′0 or 4′9 and my dad is 5′6 . ive heard if you sleep with your legs straight it might make you grow taller . i go to sleep at 9 and wake up around 7 every day (and its summer) . i eat healthy . and i have healthy desserts . i almost have milk everyday (not a glass but calcium, like cheese sometimes, or low fat icecream, i dont really like milk )

i think sleeping with your legs straight really worked for me, i did it for 2 months and i grew .

well my dad is 5 foot 11 inches.( my uncle was 6.2) my mom is 5 foot 2 inches (and her dad was 6.1) . i am wondering what is the possible height i can reach or if i am going to even grow anymore. i have been lifting since i was 15, took a few supplements when i was younger now i am just trying to maximize my height by stretching to taking amino acids and calcium/vitamin d and mineral pills. i am stretching everyday, i am wondering if i should stop working out with weight and hope to grow any taller or what? can anyone help me? i could really use an answer.
