Brief Answer:
May I know your age???

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

You seem to be bothered about your height and I understand you are searching for a means to increase height.

But nature hasn't designed our body and skeletal system to keep growing. The growth change ceases beyond a certain age. Most of us stop height growth after 18-25 years of age. And there isn't any treatment that has proved to restart the growth of limbs and body beyond this age. In other words, there are no cost effective treatment available to significantly increase height after you have crossed 18 years of age.

Hope I am clear.

Regards
