Unfortunately at a certain age the bones stop growing and you cannot grow any taller. You are at that age. There are no products that truly can increase height. I do not recommend the use of any products claiming to do so. You don't know what is in them and they could be dangerous. Even if you took growth hormone, you would not grow taller. You would cause abnormalities in your face and feet and damage to your body. Don't make yourself sick trying to do something impossible. Concentrate on other positive aspects of your personality and height won't matter. Hope this helps. If you have more questions, I would be happy to answer them.
