A member asked:

What height might i grow to and how to boost height growth?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Accept your height: Your listed age is 39. At this point your growth centers are closed and no further increase in height is possible. If you are asking for a teen, a balanced nutrition, exercise and proper sleep will support normal growth.
