Hi. Height depends on ur parents heights and also if u had any long term illness during ur childhood and nutrition as well. There may be harmonal issues as well leading to short height. So it needs a proper detailed history and examination seeing if u have any other associated signs with short height. Until the bones stop growing height can be increased with medication. Please make an appointment for online consultation to make an appropriate plan. Thanks
