Unlikely to work: Your final height is determined by an interaction of genetics/diet & exercise. Your potential for any more growth depends on growth centers in the long bones that usually close by 15-17 in females & 16-18 in males. An x-ray of your wrist/hand can identify any open growth centers. If yours have closed, there is no meds/diet or exercises that will increase your height.
