Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you want to increase height and weight, well your height of 5 feet 0 inches and and you want to increase it , well height of a person increases by the time epiphyseal plates in the long bones don't fuse and these plates ideally fuse around 21 years of age. As you are 25 years old chances of growth are very less. Once these plates fuse then there is no further growth. For increase in weight you should take protein supplements, protein poweders but not in excess. You should have a non stressful life. Once you will be above 21 there are no medicines that can change your height. I would suggest you to use shoe lifts and maintain good posture. You should take healthy diet such as protein rich diet like soya, groundnut, pulses, etc.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
