How likely is it that I will grow taller if I drink lots of milk and maintain a WELL balanced diet? I am 17.5 and 5"6 3/4 but I really want to make it to 5"8 or 5"9. When I was 12, I went to the pediatrician and she said that I would likely end up 5"9 or 5"10 but several factors when I was young I think stunted my growth (Like losing too much weight too quickly, Not getting enough nutrition) and all those factors stunted my growth I think. But I just want to make it to atleast 5"8 or 5"9 so I can wear platform shoes after that to make me look about 6 foot.

My dad is 6"0 and my mom is 5"3

Im 13.5 and im 6 ft 2 inches. I wanna be really tall like 7 foot. my doctor said i’ll be anywhere from 6 ft 6 to 6 ft 9. But i really wanna make 7 feet. What can i do to get taller naturally. I already do stretches and have become vegetarian (studies shows they grow on average 2 inches taller than meat eaters)

WHAt can i do to increase my chances of reaching 7 ft?
BQ:

Today i did pullups on the rim at the park and there not that sturdy so i broke 1 of them…..who do i contact about having it fixed.
No actually your wrong. my pediatrician is # 1 is maryland. you can get protien from things other than meat( peanut butter,nuts,seeds,shakes). I thinki trust her more than a "used to be" pediatricion
actually im flexitarian..i eat fish=protien
And hat do you mean in the NBA height doesnt matter????it means everyhing

This may seem an extremely stupid answer but i have been asking myself this question for a while. First of all I am under 18. i am 1,64 m and i want to be atleast 1,70 m i would be happy with 1,69m is there any way that i can grow taller? exercises calcium stuff anything that would help. i do ballet and modern dance now so i am always doing jumps and changements and all the ballet stuff. i also do yoga so i am always stretching but is there anyway that i can see results i don’t care how long it takes.

please don’t answer high heels because honestly i tried it. makes me feel taller but at the end of the day i feel short.

serious answers please
i am just tuned 15 a couple of days ago. and most of the people from my mother’s side of the family are pretty tall. my mother’s brother is 1’90 her other brother is 1’85 and her sister is 1’70 both my grandparents are tall from both sides of the family. my mother is the only short one in the whole family 1’64 and my dad i 1’75 m

since i was a little girl whenever i went to my pediatrician and he saw the booklets to see if i was growing well he always said that i was really above average hight at the ages he saw me.

so is it possible for me to grow taller if i have such tall people in the family. can i still have a growth spert and just grow taller?
