Hard to do: If you have not grown in the past year there is a good chance your growth centers have closed & no further linear growth is expected. A single x-ray of your wrist/hand can be examined for bone maturity. If your centers are open good nutrition/sleep & exercise maximize your growth. If closed, no meds,food,exercise or stretches will make you taller.
