Question: Will i grow any taller?
Begging you help me... i will give you 10 points. just plz..

im 17, BOY, and i am like 176,7 cm in the mornings. at night i am 5'9. i wanna reach 6'2 soooo bad..
and yeah, my parents are waaay shorter, my mom is 5'1 and dad is like 5'6.
my 22-year brother is 5'7-5'8, and my 21-year brother is 5'9 like me. i think HE is still growing, he said it himself, but then i would expect millimeters/small centimeters.
when they were in MY age they were like 5'6-5'7. yet still i am 5'9 now. so mathematics say i will end up like 5'11. ^^

i sleep 8-9 hours a day.
i drink LOADS of milk!
and i stretch 3 times a day.

Cheers! hope you can help me;)

Answers:

You're 17 meaning you are not through with puberty. So yes, you will continue to grow until you're about 21. Your height of 5'11" sounds about right. You could also grow taller than that, because you need to check you genectics with your uncle and grandfather. since they also have an effect on your height and etc.

Eating healthy will not only give you a little height boost, but also will help you all-around.
you actually gorw more during your sleeping period, so more sleep could help. Nice amount through.
The milk promotes strong bones, so thats good.
I don't think there are any stretches you could do.



You might gain a fraction of an inch since you're just 17, but you're about done growing. You've already far exceeded the height of your parents, so you've already made the most of your genetics heritage. That probably because you have been eating so healthy. Nice job!
