I'm really eager to increase my height and I'm aiming for around 6'1''-6'2''. Is getting HGH injections a safe or effective option for me? Also, are there specific yoga exercises that can help with height growth? I'm really curious and would appreciate any advice you could offer on both these points.

HGH injections are typically only prescribed for medical conditions related to growth hormone deficiencies, and using them without supervision can have risks. For natural height growth, focusing on yoga poses like Tadasana, Surya Namaskar, and Trikonasana can help improve posture and flexibility, which may support your growth potential. It's always best to consult a doctor before considering HGH therapy.

I'm currently undergoing a follicular study, and today is day 13 my right ovary has follicles sized 25x20 and 24x19, while the left has 26x20 and 25x19. The doctor gave me HCG 10,000, and I've started feeling pain. My left tube is disconnected from a past infection and surgery. Is it possible for both ovaries to rupture follicles this cycle, or does only one ovary typically release eggs per cycle? Could both ovaries rupture?
