How do you grow taller?
I am 15 year old male and I haven’t grown much in the past 5 years! I’m still 5 feet tall for almost 5 years straight. I’m worried that I’m not growing at all and I’m disappointed that I had gone and passed over the "growth spurt" age (age 13). As you know, I’m now the shortest in class and does anyone know and help me out how to get taller? My goal is to reach at least 5′ 6" by the end of 2008. It doesn’t matter if it exceeds beyond my goal as long as there is a big solution. In my family, their average height is 5′ 6" and my race is Asian. Does this affect and stun my growth? Anyone, can you help me find a solution how to get taller so that I could reach my goal in 2008?

Don’t set goals you cannot control Height is not something you can control in any way. You will hit growth spurts throughout your life and you may not reach the average height of your family. You may grow taller than your family. Don’t worry yourself about such things, deal with things within your control and allow nature and genetics to take it’s course.
many people hit growth spurts in their later years such as around 15-16. height is a polygenic trait. in other words, it is a single trait affected by many many genes. therefore, it becomes difficult to determine your potential height based on your family’s average height. i am asian too, and my parents are 5’7". however, i am 5’11". there are various rumors as to how to get taller. one of the most popular ones that i have heard is to drink milk before you go to bed.
Wait a few years. Guys tend to grow later in life than girls. I’m sure by the time you are 20 or 25, you will have grown quite a bit.
just give it time and u will grow!
This may sound funny but we feed high protein feed and give plenty of exercise to foals (young horses) that we buy that are undersized. And they usually grow like weeds from it.
(Our vet told us it would help them and it does.)
Maybe the same rule applies for humans?. I would try doing
that.
