Suggest Ways To Increase Weight
Hi, I am 21 years old and my height is 5 6. I want to increase my height to 6 0/6 2. Apart from genetics, how can I gain height naturally or medically (drugs). Help me. Thanks. Oh and I have a medical history of chronic osteomyelitis when 17 years old on my left tibia. Is this the reason I am not taller? Please help me grow taller.

Hi,
Unfortunately there is no medically safe method to do that. You can wear heels or wear clothes that make you look taller.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
