Yes it’s possible but only at a young age of bellow 16
HGH would grow a 15 year old taller as long as
they were taking 7+ iu’s a day for a prolonged time
Erda is a risky risky thing to take with many side effects to it, it’s a FGFR inhibitor for cancer medication but FGFR signalling is also involved in bone growth and growth plate development. In my opinion not worth it at all

No point giving specific numbers you need an MRI scan to see how much cartilage is left

7 ius is too little for most teenagers
0.21 iu per kg of body weight is the benchmark
For reference, 12.6 iu for a 60kg kid

Not that risky
1/5 people experienced ocular toxicity in cancer dosages (9mg+) and 1/20 experienced blindness
At a low dose of 2mg with a phosphate binder and some eye drops, it’s definitely worth it

sides are only brutal if youre retarded and dose above like 5mg daily
or
u dont research shit and dont take a phosphate binder or use eyedrops
literally all sides are able to be dealt with unless you're sub 100 iq which aligns with you tbh

If you're a boy between 17 and 19, it's still possible to grow taller—but how much depends mostly on genetics and whether your growth plates (areas of cartilage near the ends of long bones) are still open. Many males continue growing until about 18–20, though some stop earlier and a smaller number continue into their early 20s.


Here are 7 evidence-based keys that give you the best chance of reaching your natural adult height.


1. Prioritize high-quality sleep​


Most growth hormone is released during deep sleep.


Aim for:


  • 8–10 hours of sleep each night
  • A consistent bedtime and wake time
  • A cool, dark room
  • Avoid screens for about an hour before bed if possible

2. Eat enough protein and calories​


Growing requires both nutrients and energy.


Focus on:


  • Protein: eggs, chicken, fish, milk, yogurt, lentils, beans, tofu
  • Healthy carbohydrates: rice, oats, potatoes, fruit
  • Healthy fats: nuts, seeds, olive oil

If you're consistently eating too little, it can limit growth during adolescence.


3. Get enough calcium, vitamin D, and other key nutrients​


These nutrients support healthy bones.


Important nutrients include:


  • Calcium (milk, yogurt, cheese, leafy greens)
  • Vitamin D (sunlight, fortified foods, fatty fish)
  • Zinc (meat, seafood, beans, nuts)
  • Magnesium (nuts, seeds, whole grains)
  • Vitamin K (leafy green vegetables)

If you suspect a deficiency, discuss testing or supplements with a healthcare professional rather than taking high doses on your own.


4. Exercise regularly​


Exercise won't make your bones grow beyond your genetic potential, but it helps build strong bones, muscles, and good posture.


A balanced routine includes:


  • Strength training (2–4 times/week, with proper technique)
  • Running or sports
  • Jumping exercises
  • Stretching and mobility work

5. Maintain good posture​


Better posture doesn't increase bone length, but it can make you appear taller and reduce slouching.


Strengthen:


  • Upper back
  • Core
  • Glutes

Stretch:


  • Chest
  • Hip flexors
  • Hamstrings

6. Avoid things that can interfere with growth​


Try to avoid:


  • Smoking or vaping nicotine
  • Excessive alcohol
  • Anabolic steroids without medical supervision
  • Chronic sleep deprivation
  • Crash diets or severe calorie restriction

These can negatively affect overall health and, during adolescence, may interfere with normal development.


7. Know your growth potential​


Your final height is largely determined by:


  • Genetics (your parents' heights)
  • Timing of puberty
  • Overall health and nutrition

If you're 17–19 and haven't finished puberty—or if your growth plates are still open—you may still gain some height. A doctor can estimate remaining growth with a bone age X-ray (usually of the left hand and wrist).


What doesn't reliably increase height​


There is no good scientific evidence that these make healthy adolescents grow taller than their genetic potential:


  • Height supplements
  • Special stretching routines
  • Hanging from bars
  • "Height increase" pills
  • Shoe insoles (they only add apparent height while worn)
