Is It Possible To Increase Height Naturally?

I would like to know some information regarding increasing height. I am 22yrs and my height is 163cm. Is it possible to increase my height naturally at this age without high antibiotics or surgery? I think my leg and hand muscles are firmed in position and hard. As I weigh a lot, that again reduces my height. I would be really grateful if you could please help me out with the same.

Hai,

As bone growth will stop around 22 to 24 years of age.because skeletal maturity will be attained at this age.
As you are 163 cm genetically if your parents fall in the same category. no further significant height will be gained naturally.

No medicine will help in increase your height.

as from your quote your bone become firm so no further growth can except.

thank you

have a healthy life.
