I see you are 18 years old , most likely your growth plate maybe fused.
So try maintaining a good posture ,
Have adequate nutrition
And strength your core muscles
These help to keep you at a good height.
Take plenty fruits and vegetables ,
get adequate calcium and Vit D ,
and proper sleep, these may help increase height if your growth plates aren't fused yet.
