Hi i as wondering how do people get taller? i am an asain american so therefore it's a bit hard however,my whole family are around like 5'5-5'9 but i am barly 5'1.I am 15 .Female. I eat regulary and eat calcium but i dont know what to do.I am scared that i wont be able to grow anymore and be short forever,
which will really suck when i reach my 30's.
Is it also true thatgirls stop growing as soon as their period begins?

From what I've heard, most girls stop growing at around ages 16 to 18, but it could be different for different people. The period thing isn't true, though. Some girls start their periods really young, & they still get taller. 5'1" isn't a bad height. I'm almost 19 & I'm just 5'1". The calcium thing might help a little, but not much. You might be able to ask your doctor more about this, but I doubt there's much you can do.
