You cannot increase your height, your body is done growing. You need to appreciate yourself for who you are. Why do you want to be taller? You are perfect just the way you are! If you are thinking that you would get a woman if you were taller, your height weeds out all the shallow women who marry for looks and lets those women who will really love you have a chance. God made you this way for a reason, so love yourself the way you are and work on improving your education, your personality and your heart rather than complaining about your height.

Am sorry friend. I told like that because if any Indian friend on mylot says me about any medicine/cream i can go and look out for it in the market right. So only i told like that and i know that there are a lot of medicines in US so if anyone suggest me those medicines then i won't be able to get it right because am in India. I hope you've understood. I didn't mean to hurt anyone friend. If i've done then am sorry. Anyways thanks friend for giving me the link so that i can download the article and read it. Thanks once again. Happy mylotting.

I don't believe such kind of things. Drinking more milk will be helpful as it contains calcium. Besides, playing basketball will make you have a higher height. I doubt whether there is any improvements when you are 24 years old. I love China

Hello rafjoe!! I wished I knew something but I don't I have the same question like yours. I am 24 years old too but standing 4'9" only. There are times that its frustrating because people never treat you like your age because if your height. But sometimes, it does good because I get lot of compliments..hehe

Exactly friend. My name is Rajesh Its very frustating when we see our fellow mates taller than us right. Due to this i had recently joined a gym and the instructor there told me that exercises like stretching and yoga will really help in increasing height and specially swimming. Itseems swimming helps in faster growth. I hope we grow. Happy mylotting.

Don't take those substances as there will always be a side effect. Be appreciative of what you have and you'll never wish to grow taller again. At your age, it would be quite impossible to grow taller as the bone epiphysis had met already so there is no more room to grow taller. You're normal and height is not that important. Character is what counts the most. Be a good person and people won't notice your height but of good you are and you'll be "tall" in their eyes. happy mylotting.

Don't do anything without your doctor's advice. why do you want to be taller? Haven't you heard that good things come in small packages? We are the height we are and I would expect that you are too old for hormonal or growth injections or treatment to add to your height. You are right to fear side effects my friend. Speak to a doctor and find out the truth. Blessings

Well rajfoe there isn't any thing you can do or take to increase your hight. You are finished growing at your age. There are some surgeries that are preformed on people that have very short legs or arms. Best to make the best of your hight and have a very out going personality instead of worrying about how tall you are.

I dun think there's any medicine for height growth.. If there's any, i will like to have one too.. lol =D But i do know there are certain exercises one can do to improve posture, and that inturns will make us taller too.. however, dun expect the growth to be too much, and it takes quite some time just to grow 1-2cm.. lol =D

Hello rajfoe, i have heard that one stops growing vertically after one crosses the age of 21 or so. Since you have already reached 24 years i do not think that you will grow any further. Besides i do not think that any diet, protein or otherwise can help you to grow tall. As for using artificial means like hormonal injections etc i would personally advise you not to go for it because of side effects. when i was schooling i was very short in stature so my dad admitted me into a gym. After doing Indian exercises for over a year i suddenly started shooting up and by the time i reached 21 yrs i had grown to 5 ft 71/2 in. After that i stopped grpwing. If you have not exercised you could join a gym and ask your trainer if any specific exercise caould help you grow. In my days 45 yrs back we did not have the facilities that are prevalent now so you could still have a good chance of growing upwards. Good luck.

I hope someone can help you but I think you are to old for any but surgical help. Why are you this height? Is is genetics or not enough food? We each have certain things in our lives to cope with but how you look on the outside is often the hardest to deal with. Just remember that many of the most important people in the world have been very short. Good luck

Western medicine would say that by 24, you are done growing. I think genetics plays the biggest role in how tall a person will be. But I think you are already as tall as you will ever be. Sorry, I can't help you.

That is a very dangerous thing to do ,how tall are you,how tall are your family,maybe you are not meant to be tall,whatever you decide go to your doctor and do it properly or you could end up in all type of trouble.You could end up being very ill or worse if you just take powders and things without medical advise .Take care of your self and let us all know how you get on.

At 24 years old, I'm afraid that you're pretty much done growing. A lot of medicine and other concoctions that purportedly increase height doesn't work, so you'd be wasting your money and possibly endangering your health. You could talk to your doctor about growth hormone injections but they do cost a lot of money.
