Suggest Remedy To Stunt The Height Growth

I am an almost 22 year old male and think i am still growing taller. I was a late bloomer and started puberty around 15 years old. I am about 185 cm tall but lanky and i hate being tall and thin. I dont want to grow any taller, is there a way to stunt anymore growth or speed up puberty, which ive been in for like 8 years. I am tired of waiting for me to mature.

Hi,

I have gone through your query, you should not be worried this much regarding this issue.

Physical growth and puberty is a natural phenomenon, but as you are very much concerned about this i will suggest you to fix an appointment with a endocrinologist and get some tests for your harmones, just to know that your harmone levels are ok.

if something comes out in tests then only your treatment plan can be decided.

ok, If anything else you want to know please feel free to ask.

Thanks & Regards
Dr. Shiv
