HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Height is mainly determined by genetics (the height of your parents). Since your parents are both 5 ft 1 inch then it is unlikely that you would attain a height far above this.

During childhood or early adolescence there is an area at the ends of the long bones (bones in the arms and legs) that is involved in adding bone and therefore increasing height and length.

Eventually this area stops adding new bone and no further growth is possible.This is usually at the end of adolescence where you are now.

The use of a good diet with alot of fruits and vegetables, enough exercise and good general health can help a person reach their maximum predetermined height but unfortunately this would would not work after the area stops adding bone.

There are no medications that can cause the addition of more bone or increase the height.

The use of exercises such as pilates and yoga which strengthen the core muscles and improve posture can sometimes help someone appear taller.

I hope this helps
