A member asked:

Hi.. am 22 years old.. and my height is 4'11.. i want to increase my height. is it possible? and if yes then hiw?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Adult height: Unless you had a very delayed puberty, you will not grow any more. With puberty, you get a growth spurt, but then the growth plates in the bone fuse, and you stop growing. Hormones (eg. Hgh) will not help.
