Honestly, eat your vegetables and drink lots of milk. Its good for bones. It worked for me. |

This is a tough process, there are two ways to do it. You can have yourself physically stretched. Here they will breake your legs and place pins in them to make the bones grow back together longer than they were and they will stretch the leg. This is very painful and not very common. The more common but slightly more dangerous way is to go to the doctor and ask about human growth hormone. This will naturally grow your body but the thing is that it can act like steroids and cause harm to parts of your body |

there is a surgical procedure where they insert extentions into your bones to make you taller. this only adds a couple inches tho |

Go to the doctor, he can give you growth hormones.
By growth hormones i mean tablets which has hormones in them ;)
Why did i get thumbs down? I know several people that have and it works.
*Fourth edit* you will only be given them if your actually small. |

First of all, how short is really short?? Second of all, no doctor is going to do any kind of leg extensions for an average short person. Usually that is only for dwarfs who have bowed legs or things of that nature. Be happy with what God gave you. It doesn't matter how short or tall you are, most people are always unhappy...so learn to be happy with what you are already. There is nothing you can do to make yourself taller!!!!! |

Just be happy with who you are. I saw a show once where doctors could give kids shots of growth hormones, but as always, they have risks, and who would like to get shots often?
I'm short too (I'm 14 and 5'1") and sometimes I wish I was taller, but it's best to just trust that your body knows what's best. If your feet can reach the ground, you are tall enough! ;-)
Best of luck! |

Why do you feel the need to get taller? If people would accept the way God made them they would live a happier life.It's not like you're deformed or anything serious. |

At 13 you're not done growing/getting taller. My cousin, who's 16 now, hit her growth splurt right after her 14th birthday. The best thing you can do is wait.
Milk is the best thing to have to increase bone/muscle stucture, which will help you get taller.
Overall, a eat a balenced diet (dairy, meat, grain, fruits, veggies) |

stop eating or drinking any thing with caffeine that stuns your growth,eat healthy,and take ur vitamins or maybe ur not so post to grow any more
there is a certain hormone (NOT illegal Steroids) something that your Doctor can give you they r shots my cousin takes them ill try to get back to u on this if i find out the name of the hormone |

Mr. ??????

well, technically you cant
but since your starting your teens
you will grow, just wait and see
also, drink some milk. it may take a while for your body to mature, sometimes people get puberty late
if you are dead serious, just get surgery in your bones, painful but you can grow five inches in 1 month |

Firstly your 13 and it is extremely likely you will grow and have a growth spurt, Ive had male friends who havent had theres until they were 17, it will come in time.
Being small is a good thing, again I know many lads who are small and most of them are actually pretty good looking so I wouldnt worry. Iam also very tiny and Ive had no problems and have been able to do what everyone else has done if not more.
It is harder when your younger but your grow to love it plus I can promise you that you will grow.
Enjoy yourself, as you have a lot of changes over the next few years. |

well what i have heard is that if you lay down and go to sleep over night you get taller because of gravity then when you wake you shrink throughout the day because of gravity lol
so lay down more lol
but everyday you do grow taller not by so much that u can notice but enough to gradually make you taller and taller as you grow older
you may be short because of genetics and thats something you are going to have to live with
i am 12 years old and am in year 7, many many people i know are short... dont worry you are not the only one
my sister is 19 and im only 12 and im not that much shorter than her, she is short for her age and probly wont grow that much more she is probly around 215cm cuz im only 150cm so yeah but dont worry too much you will grow and get to ur wanted height just be patient your only 13 and still young... |

umm u could were shoes that hve more hieght to them but theres no way to change how fast u grow or how slow u grow...srry.... |

haha my younger sister has this problem also. She's fifteen and she's working really hard on trying to grow taller. The best things that work are drinking three cups of milk each day. Maybe take some multivitamins for teens. Im not sure if this works, but I've heard of it before. You can hang on to a monkey bar or something like that and kinda "stretch" your arms out to make you longer. |

You're a girl, right? Well you're only 13. Girls usually are finished growing by the time they're around 15 ish. So you still have time for a growth spurt. And stay away from coffee haha |

i hate to say this since you dont want to hear it but your genetics say your short your short although i have heard of a surgery where they put extensions or something like that into your legs i know it sounds stupid but some lady got it cause she wanted to be a stewardess on planes and she was to short. |

Sorry, but "No, you can't" is the right answer. Your height is programmed into your genes before you're born.
You're only 13, so you'll probably get taller anyways, I was taller than most of the boys at school when I was thirteen - we're all sixteen now and they're all about a foot taller than me.
Don't worry about your height, i'm sure you'll be fine.
Look at how tall your parents are, that will give you an idea of how tall you will be.
Also: Don't smoke! Smoking stunts your growth. I'm taller than my 22 year old friend, and she's the same height as she was when she was 14 because she started smoking! |

drink lots of milk..get calcium in your diet...be physically active..take part in sports..or just go to a doctor..they can prescribe medicine..you will get taller by the age of 14-15...don't worry |

I am 23 and super short...stay this way, guys love it...
Actually, you are only 13, you will probably have more growth spurts, I had a growing disorder, so that's why I am short...if you are honestly concerned consult a physician. |
