Question

i'm around.. 5'1-2ish.. how do i get taller?? everyone keeps saying i just need to wait because i'm only 14 years old.. but i'm always the short one compared to my friends! anyone help me?

Answer 1

i'm almost 18 and I'm around that height. you're still growing and probably will be for the next 5 years. the only advice is that sleep is when you grow the most, so get a lot of sleep. however, if you are genetically not supposed to be tall, there's nothing you can do that can  really make a difference.  

Answer 2

U dont have to worry at this age. Jus follow these simple methods how u can lose weight & also gain gud height.

1. Pull ups or just try hanging & holding on for as long as u can.

2. Cycling - atleast minimum of an hr a day

3. Skipping - atleast half hr a day

4. Swimming - atleast an hr a day.

5. climbling - anything & anywhere u can (u will have a few falls but its worth it)

kid dont worry bout a thing, a person's height growth is upto the age of 18 & sometimes 20. u have a long way to go & i believe that u can make it.... best of luck.

Answer 3

stretch i guess and you would probably pull out a few cms... that is if your lucky... if you want me to be brutally honest dont have your hopes too high, females tend to gradually stop growing at that age, a few years after they reached puberty, and 70% of your growth is determined by the genes from your parents... so your maximum potential is at most a few inches taller than your parents height... again, if your lucky.. I totally understand you and my goal was 180cm / 5'11" but im only 174cm / 5'8.5" and =/ thats life

Answer 4

Alot of guys like shorter girls better, at least where  I live.

There is really no way to get taller.

Just be happy with yourself.

If you're still growing, make sure to eat plenty of protein and get a lot of sleep. You might be done growing, though.  You are a 14 year old girl, and most girls have stopped growing at that point.

Answer 7

If you're a guy, guys grow till' they are 21. If you're a girl, sorry, at 16 you'll stop and that's your height for life. Be thankful you're healthy. Doesn't matter how tall. . .
