It is not like eating a lollypop and your height starts increasing.
Please consult an Orthopedic surgeon in your area. He can at least tell you whether the ossification of the growing ends of bones has occurred or not.
Please remember one thing, if it was so easy to increase height by medical treatment, and PMSY in operation, half of the adolescents and young adults in India would have been admitted in the Hospital for gaining height.

Why so insecure of the height. You are young and have many things to achieve. Your height should not be one of your concerns. Just relax.
