Helloo...
Thank you for choosing HCM.
I am very sorry to say that being tall or short totally depends on genetics and that there's nothing much you can do about it, however stretching exercises have been said to increase height upto the age age 21.There are other medications but these medications have huge unwanted side effects.
Thank you and take care.
