Hi First and foremost problem with height may be due to genetic reason or secondly it may be due to GHD(Growth Hormone Deficiency) . Growth Hormone is being stimulated by the pituitary gland that is present in the brain. Consult an endocrinologist regarding ur GHD.

Please note a point. Your height has a genetic component. So is your height less when compared with your parents? Did you every have thyroid problen in early childhood?
