I'm currently around 164 cm tall and I'm hoping to increase my height by at least 2 inches. Can you share any advice or recommend any medication that can help with height growth without any side effects? I exercise regularly, but I'm really looking to gain those extra inches.

You still have age for growth consume healthy diet and visit endocrinologist for evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm 19 and a half years old and I'm about 5 feet 7 inches tall. I'm really curious about any potential height growth I could expect by the time I'm 21, especially with exercise and a proper diet. I've heard some people talk about doing setups while sticking to a cart leg - is that something that's good or bad for height growth? Also, I've been told that I might only gain about half an inch to maybe 2 inches, but that's rare. Is there any truth to that? I just want to know what I can realistically expect.

So, while your body may not grow significantly taller after 19.5 years, adopting a healthy lifestyle with good posture practices and exercises can help you reach your full potential and improve your overall body alignment.
