Hi XXXXXX,Thanks for writing in.The height you have mentioned is good enough but slightly less for men.The ultimate height a child gains is basically a genetic function and not much affected by environmental factors or hormones etc.At 17years most of us have mature bones which do not grow in length and for that reason no gain in height. Although it is also a family trend, some men continue to gain height till 21years age.A good nutritious diet with high protein intake and outdoor games and exercise are the most promising options and may give 1-2 inches more and is worth trying.Some use growth hormone but it helps only those who have it's deficiency.Still other option is the surgery called Ilizarov technique which can give length to limbs but more of a choice for freaks.I hope you would be benefited by the advise.
