I am 20 years of age (male), And my height is 5 ft 4 inch. This low height is a great concern for me. Months ago I was advised by a doctor to take ashwagandha powder and lakshadi guggul and that would help me increase my height. I also started eating healthy, sleep well and yoga and exercises but all that it lead to was a slight increase in weight and not for height. So I am pinning my final hope on growth hormone injections and I would really be grateful if any doctor could provide me the details about this, the possible outcomes, advantage and disadvantage, cost , long term side effects and other relevant details. Thank you.
