NEED SOME EXTRA HEIGHT

---

I am 17 years old and i am about 5-8. is there any hope for me to reach 5-10 or 5-11 by the time i stop growing completely or is this out of the question? i drink milk often and are there any exercises i can do that will help me gain some height? thanks

You'll grow taller, or you won't. Its up to your genes to decide how tall you will be. Usually people don't stop growing completely until they're in their early 20s, so you may be taller yet.

my friend ( or i should say my brothers friend ) was short until college and when he was liek 19 or 20 he grew alot and now hes almost my height, Im 6'4

Yah i think it was Kareem Abdul-Jabar(sp?) grew like 6 inches in college.

rotfl excersizes to get...taller?

lol i must have heard that along the way. i heard running helps with height. is this true or not?

noooo....

You can't do anything to get taller, it's all genetics.

not even drinking milk??

As far as I know milk just makes your bones stronger (due to the calcium or something like that) but no, doesn't make you taller

yea i saw that to. the leg bone is broken then they put something in this ladys leg because she didnt have height requirements but im not that short and im trying to get in as much height i posibly can before i completely stop.

im only asking for 2 inches

Do you people no know how to use the damn edit button? ITS RIGHT NEXT TO THE REPLY ONE!

im not sure how to . do u just click on it or what???

Why don't you just try it?

lol i was just tryin to piss him off evn more. never mind me. can anyone else please try to answer my original question. thanks a lot

I think they already did. There are no exercises you can do. Milk does not help. The only option you have is surgery. I'm not sure they would do it on you though because you are of average height.

i really dont think theres any exercises you can do to gain height.
