A member asked:
I am 21 years old.my height is 5.2".i want to increase my height to 5.4".can you please suggest me the ways to do it except for the surgery?

Growth plates: Once we hit adulthood and our growth plates are fused - we can not gain any more height. At 21 yrs of age, your growth plates should be fused. Sorry, but there are no medicines or stretching or herbs or whatever that are going to be able to change that for you.
