A member asked:

I am getting taller, i guess but i want to stop it. my height is 185cm now, age is 27 but weight is only 65kg. what should i do to stop my height and ?

Get evaluated: If you are really growing taller at 27, you have a problem and it needs to be evaluated.Men stop their linear growth at 17-20. If you are growing taller your hormones are not functioning properly.Find an Endocrinologist affiliated with one of the central medical schools.Your local doc may be able to arrange a visit.
