What Causes Excessive Height Growth In A Adolescent?

I m 19 years old boy. My height is 6.5 and weight is 60kg. In last few years my increases too much. And still my height is increasing. I am so thin and tall. I feel shame in my society, college, etc. I am so taller than all the girls. Please help me to reduce my height. I think reduction is not possible. If no then please help me so that no more height should increase in future and body will grow because i am so thin and tall. Thanks in advance.

Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your query and being your physician I completely understand your health concerns.
Its normal to have increase in height if there is family history .Meet endocrinologist to rule out ACROMEGALY.
Meanwhile stay calm
Hope your query is adequately addressed if you still have any feel free to ask
