You can't stop yourself from growing. This is determined by factors beyond your control. You will stop growing naturally by yourself when your Puberty is over and the growth hormones stop producing. This is also when you become a full adult.

Children that are starved from nutritional foods will not mature properly and will be stunted in growth. This happens in lands that are prone to droughts where farming becomes impossible and the Governments are failing to feed their people.

the best advice i could possibly give you is that you see your doctor about it and they may be able to give you some tablet's. I'm tall myself but face it it's better than being a midget plus tall people tend to be more slim and trimmed, although I'd like to be an average size than my current size now- 5.2 I'd rather be this size than being small and midget-like besides you should stop growing at some stage and then other people would catch up with you! :D

So why do we stop growing huh?? Well our genes start working at the moment of conception when a single cell becomes a complex organism in which billions of cells work in concert. Once we are born, we continue to grow and develop until the completion of our genetic growth cycle. At this point our genetic program tells us to stop growing. From an evolutionary viewpoint, once our genes have orchestrated the growth and development of the body to the point that it can reproduce, the purpose for growth is complete. Nutrition can have profound effects on ones final growth stature though along with other variables such as lifestyle and exercise. Exercise can stimulate growth as long as it is not "overdone" and a healthy drug free lifestyle also comes with numerous growth cycle benefits. Below is such research uncovered about our various genetic paths. ENJOY!!

You will stop growing on your own when your body is ready to stop ! The hormones and chemicals that are released to start puberty will drop off as you finish puberty and your growth will become slower too. By the time you are in your twenties you will stop growing upwards.

Your pituitary gland stops producing growth hormone and your bone's growth plates fuse. People who have a tumor of this gland and do not stop making growth become giants.
