What Causes Sudden Increase In Height?

a very strange medical phenomenon has happened . my wife is aged 40 and she had increased in height . we were not trying any medications / exercises etc. at all . simply living normal lives . I have the photographic solid evidence to prove this. she was about 5 ft , 7 inches at 38.5 years old . now she is 5 ft 10 inches . how is this possible ?? hope it is not a disease !

Hello
This is not due to any normal reason. Sudden increase in the height after complete maturity ( ossification or development of bones ) is unusual phenomena , so consult an ENDOCRINOLOGIST and get his opinion after MRI of brain.
Good luck.
