   If you take a peek at the other identical questions by typing ‘taller’ into the box at the top of the page, ‘search for questions’ you will find yours is the 338,330th, so far (really!)
   Your maximum height potential, just the same as the other 338,329 individuals, who have asked this question already, was fixed at the moment of your conception by your genetics. Malnutrition, injury, toxins or diseases may prevent you achieving that potential, but you can neither exceed it, nor accelerate the time it takes you to reach it.

   I don’t think there is much you can do. But hey, don’t complain. I’m 15 too and only 4’9". Learn to be proud of your body.

   I don’t think there’s much chance of you getting to 5’8". Eat healthily and get enough sleep.

   all you can do is be sure your body has the nutrients it needs to grow and be healthy.
   you can’t make your body grow any more than your genes are going to make it grow…

   There isn’t much chance of you getting to 5’8" but you enough rest and a good diet will help you grow too, i’m not sure about the tablets but just generally eating well and avoiding caffine drinks like coffee and also smoking will all help.
