When will I get my growth spurt?

When will i get my growth spurt? how tall will i be? i want to be past 6 feet.?

• I asked this question like an hour ago but i forgot to say i never had my growth spurt because my doctor even said and i grow 2-3 inches a year and a growth spurt is 5-6 inches. what age would i get my growth spurt? right now i am 13.5 years old. i don't think i finished puberty ( in fact i don't even think i started it) i have a girly voice and verrrry little hair in the wrong places. barely noticeable. my dad got his growth spurt in college he was 4'11" but he sped up all of a sudden to 5'7". my mom is 5' 5" if my dad got his growth spurt late does this mean i will get it late too? ( i am 5'5")

• Answer:

  If you are still within the growing age then perhaps you can add a few inches by eating a balanced diet and leading an active life. A nutritious diet that includes fruits and vegetables, dairy, cereals, meat, and plenty of water will aid the natural process for enhancing height. A good and proper night’s sleep is also essential for the growth process. Taking part in active sports along with some stretching exercises can have a cumulative effect on human growth. There is not much we can do to grow taller after puberty. There are many products in the market today that claim to increase height of adults, but they are all scams without sufficient scientific evidence. Surgical options, though available, are EXTREMELY RISKY and of course expensive. This leaves us with basically two options. 1. Stretching Exercises: - These exercises will help you improve your posture. You’ll be surprised that how much of “Height” is hidden behind your slouched back. You can, at any age, add an inch or two of height by simply improving your posture.

Second, you can create a “Taller” effect by following some smart fashion techniques. You can easily add another inch or two of “illusionary height” by improving your dress coordination.
