Need to increase height
I am 18 year old female. My father's height is 5.1 and my mother's height is 5.4 . My period came at the age of 11 , after that my height didn't increased. It's 4.9. I have also taken speed height pills but it didn't worked. I am underweight. My weight is around 35 kg.
Is there any way other than surgery to increase my height? I have heard of magnetic therapy and naturotherapy, will that work or is there any other medicine that could work.
For my dream job I need a height of 5.1 .
