Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns
Do understand, height is related with growth of bone. Not muscle growth. Bone growth stops around the age of 22 and that is it. After the growth has stopped, there is no miracle cure to increase a human being's height except in the case of Marfan Syndrome.
Therefore please understand this and don't loose money to quacks.
Try some height increasing exercises and sleep straight. Might help a little.
Good luck.
