A member asked:
At age 37 had accupuncture and took a few chinese herbs (can't recall their names) for infertility. would either cause height to increase at this age?

Platform shoes: Unfortunately, the majority of people have ceased growing in height by 19 years old. Your doctor could obtain a screening x-ray to see if the growth plates in your long bones have closed. If so, only surgical manipulation will change nature.

Neither: acupuncture nor Chinese herbs will increase your height at age 37.
