M 17 nw had tb 2 yrs back and strtd shvng 4 yrs back bt height nt grwing from 4 yrs..help what to do..hw to increase height?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not much: Most of the time your height velocity (how quickly you increase your height) is genetically determined. Most males have their growth spurt in their mid teens, but may have a second growth spurt after 18 (if that is common in your family). Eat healthy foods and exercise regularly, but you really can't change your height.
