Is it possible for a short person to grow taller as an adult?!


Question:

Is it possible for a short person to grow taller as an adult?

I was learning about growth hormones today, and was just wondering: Is that the only way for a person to grow (in height) after puberty? I know that during puberty, you dramatically grow the fastest, but I was curious about whether or not one can do something to grow as an adult, too. I was just asking because my friend and I were discussing this, and she said that she had heard of things that allowed people to grow "taller". Is that possible?


Answers:

Not really, once you've hit about 24 you are done growing and start decaying.
