    @msalegend204 I forgive you for your inexperience. You are swimming in uncharted waters, kid. A superior argument has little to do with rhetoric and word choice, and more to do with the quality of the research.

    At a certain age, height growth stops. Our OP has reached that age.

    "Besides, I'm almost 19 now and I grew 2 inch due to lots of stretching exercises every evening, proper nutrition, and quality sleep in the last 9 months. So my advice to you is to set a goal and work hard for it and most important don't cheat cz you're only cheating yourself.
    Good luck :)"

    No, you did not grow from stretching. Period. Stretching affects muscles not your bones, which is what gives you height. Your bones have growth plates and once those are fused, earlier in females than males, you are done growing. No amount of stretching will change it.

    You could always get yourself a pair of wedge platform shoes. They easily add anywhere from 3 to 5 inches of height and are fairly easy to walk in.
