Patient's question:
I bought over 4000 yuan worth of Enbei Gao products and have been taking them for two and a half months. I haven't grown even one centimeter. Can I continue taking them, and will there be any side effects?Previous treatment history and results: No previous treatment has been administered.
Help needed: Can taking height-increasing pills actually make you taller?
Doctor's answer:
Your situation requires checking how your epiphyses are fusing. If they have already fused, then nothing you eat will be effective. If they haven't fused, it's not advisable to take height-increasing supplements either, as they are not very effective, not noticeable, and have a long duration. They also have certain side effects. It's recommended to engage in more activity and calcium supplementation, which can help increase height and also strengthen the body. Since this medication hasn't been effective after two months, there's no need to continue taking it.
