Will l-arginine and l-lysine help me grow taller?

Question by Alex: Will l-arginine and l-lysine help me grow taller?
I'm a 16 year old male, and I am very self conscious about my height because I'm only 5'5. I read somewhere that taking l-arginine combined with l-lysine before bed will boost HGH (Human Growth Hormone) levels by up to 700%.

I am aware that HGH is the hormone produced by the pituitary gland, and it's responsible for the growth of skeletal muscles and the long bones of the body. Obviously my growth plates haven't closed because I'm only 16, so does anyone know if taking l-arginine (2g) l-lysine (1g) every night before bed will eventually help me grow in the long run?

If not, what are some ways to increase my height? My genes are not great since my mom is 5'3 and my dad is 5'7. However, every male in my mom's side of the family is very tall. Also, I've always been short, and I think maybe my body is just developing late because I'll be 17 in a couple months and I just barely started to grow a little bit of armpit hair.

Any thoughts and intelligent responses would be greatly appreciated.
