Ways To Grow Taller After Puberty

Monday, August 29th, 2011

Can I still grow taller?

I’m female, Asian American, 15 years old. I am currently standing at almost 5’5 but I want to be at least 5’6. I have heard that females usually stop growing at 12 years old, sometime around puberty. I grew about a head that year. I have noticed that I have grew a little bit after that, but nothing dramatic.
Lately I’ve been eating alot and my knees and legs get sore often. Does this mean I’m still growing? What are ways to increase my height if it’s possible? Thanks everyone. :)

My mom is 5’5 & my dad is about 5’7 if that helps :)

You may perhaps have reached your peak height already and if you haven’t you will probably peak at 5’6 at 16.
