A member asked:
Has anyone seen instances of female patients growing significantly taller later in life and, if so, at what age did that occur and why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Increasing in height late in life would be very unusual and would suggest increased secretion of growth hormone-usually tumor.
