Hello,

I don't believe the height can be improved at that age.
I think you may visit a geneticist to consult your condition. It can be probably that you may have inherited it from your mother.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
