It's true that estrogen has been used in the past to stop the growth of girls in the past. Are you suspecting that you have high estrogen or do you actually know your hormone levels?

Have your growth plates fused? If not, intervention with human growth hormones (HGH) will have an effect, but you might not be eligible for a prescription since you don't qualify for idiopathic short stature. Also keep in mind that it costs a few thousand dollars per month for HGH treatment.

No i don't think i have high estrogen although i do have mild gyno from puberty.I assume my plates are open because i've grown half inch in the last year but i guess that could just be my spinal cartilage thickening.Do you think mk677 might be a cheaper alternative?Or maybe just try letro anyway seen as im probably very close to being done growing anyway as a last shot?

IMO a meager 2 cm increase isn't worth altering your endocrine system, besides chances are at 20 your growth plates have fused. No doctors will prescribe GH treatment for the sole intent of increasing height at that age however even if you buy GH online (counterfeit) there are certain precautions that need to be taken otherwise you will permanently f*ck up your body.

No idea, not my area of study.

I agree with Zucc, not worth all this trouble for 2 cm, which is attainable with some sneakers. I'd eat clean, hit the gym, and sleep well instead. Worst case scenario you bulk up and look better.

HGH injections are in the tens of thousands of dollars per month.

And again, you have no idea about the status of your growth plates. So no matter if we're talking about HGH injections or AIs, it still boils down to this issue. AIs delay the closure of your growth plates (which may already be closed), and HGH injections are the most effective form of HGH treatment for stature (and your plates for legs and torso might already be closed).

You're definitely too old for any gains through HGH injections. Not worth the cost, even if some of your plates are still open.

Try melatonin, it produces similar AI effects as Letro though not as good as Letro.
