I've suddenly lost about 4 kgs this month, which is unusual for me. The only major change in my routine is that Ive switched from office travel to working from home. Im also feeling a bit weak. Should I consider getting any tests done? What do you recommend?

I'm a 23-year-old guy, standing at 5'9.5". I'm really interested in knowing if I can still increase my height at this age. Could you give me some advice on this?
Growth plates in the bones of the human body close by the age of 18-21 years (for males). After these growth plates close, it is generally not possible to increase height through natural methods or medical intervention like growth hormone therapy. You may try to improve posture or focus on stretching and yoga in order to increase your perceived height.

I've been wondering if there's any medication or supplement that might help me increase my height. I'm currently 55 inches tall and 21 years old, and I'm hoping to grow about 12 inches. Is this possible, and do you have any advice or recommendations?
At 21, your growth plates are likely closed, making significant height increase challenging; there's no proven medicine or tablet to increase height in adults, but some supplements like Growth Factor Plus, Height Max, or vitamin Dcalcium may help maintain bone health, although results are not guaranteed and individual growth potential may vary.
