High heels: are your best option for now, work on self esteem next, 5 feet is a good height, taller than many, academic / career / family achievements can make make you stand much higher, good luck

5 feet tall: There is no way to increase physical height but by being secure w/in yourself, being a kind, clean, and decent person you will increase your stature greatly. The happiest people of all are those who are able to move beyond what others say about them, which rises and falls like the stock market. Peace and good health.

Platform shoes: Growth centers in long bones determine how tall you can grow.Most growth centers will close at 15-16 years in females or 2-3 yrs after 1st menses. After that happens, you are done. If your growth centers are open, a balanced diet/rest ; healthy physical activity will support good growth.Their are no special diet,meds or exercises that make you taller after growth centers close..
