The height that you achieve depends on several factors:
1) The genes you inherit from your parents; 2) The age you enter puberty (when you start to develop sexually); 3) the age you have your first period (if you’re a girl); and 3) your general health.... Most young women achieve their full height within 12 to 18 months after their first period. Most young men tend to stop growing at the end of puberty when they begin to shave regularly.

There is very little that can be done to help people grow taller. In special cases, for truly small people who do not seem to grow, doctors may prescribe growth hormones. For the large majority of shorter people, this is not the case. For the most part, your height is based on your genes. The best way to reach your true height potential is to eat right and exercise.

The only potentially legitimate answer to this question to be to correct your posture. If you have rounded shoulders with a drooping head, you will appear shorter. Learning to correct your posture and lift your head upright will certainly bring you to your "natural" height, but will not actually add inches to you bones.

There are numerous products that promise to add a few inches. As I'm sure you are aware, the web is full of false information and numerous scam products. Do not waste your money unless you are willing to see it disappear down a bottomless pit.

You can't increase your height it is genetic. You can maintain a proper diet if you are still growing so you can grow to your full potential.
