Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

Sorry dear at your age it is not possible to increase height natural way.

Please note that for a male the growth takes under the influence of a chemical called growth hormone and testosterone.

Individuals height depends upon many factors like:

Family trait:means height of parents
Over all growth

After age of puberty that is about 12-14 years in males the growing ends of bones fuses so that after that is not possible to increase height.

No medicines,no injections can increase height. The products that claim such thing are fake and not to be used.

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Dr.Pragnesh
