Months and months ago I was on a different website and came across a comment from someone named "The Orthodontist" who (I assume based on the comments he made, very similar way of thinking) works at LVI, what he said was this
"When your skull obtains a better shape the pituitary gland will start to release more growth hormone. This change in the hormonal homeostasis willl reopen the growth plates. This can also be witnessed with diseases like gigantism."
This is very interesting, does anyone have an explanation for why or how this can occur? I'm talking about the reopening of the growth plates.
Here is a link to the comment itself, just scroll down and you will find it https://redpilltalk.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=914
I've experienced this. In the four months that I have been performing my jaw strengthening routine, I've grown just over a half inch. I experience growth aches nearly every day, as well as frequent nightmares which I suspect could be tied to hormonal activity.
I've detailed my experiences in the post below:
This is very interesting... Are you sure that you growing taller is not just from you correcting your posture completely? Have you experienced any growth in regions that are not affected by posture like wrists, shoulders etc ?
So people with strong masticatory muscles and well developed maxilla's are closer to their full genetic potential?
lol sorry but some of the posts regarding mewing would make you think it's a magic panacaea that makes you a model, taller, cures cancer, etc. Any so called growth would probably be so minimal that it's undetectable when accounting for accuracy and precision errors from measurements. I'd be willing to bet any 'height' gained would be completely from postural improvement.

Yes. My torso seems to have widened considerably, as have my shoulders. My neck seems to have gained muscle mass (likely from posture), and my toes have even changed shape! My feet used to have a swollen appearance, but now appear nimble and elongated. My natural skin tone has grown darker, and I have taken on a more "golden" appearance. I've also experienced a rapid growth in pubic and chest hair, and both my penis and testicles seem to have increased in size (I'm serious). My libido has skyrocketed, and I think about sex way more frequently than I used to. Another user also noted similar changes a few weeks ago.
I'm sure there are more changes which I'm currently unaware of. These, however, are the most noticeable. Overall, I appear healthier and feel more energetic. I haven't noted any obvious change in facial aesthetics—aside from increase in zygomatic projection and density—although my tipped molars seem to be straightening out. Keep in mind that I'm currently 19 years of age.
You're only 19 though... Whats stopping these changes from just occurring from a late/long puberty? If you were 29 this would be news

That's precisely why I mentioned my age. However, how much of a "delayed" puberty can be realistically attributed to craniofacial dystrophy? I first began experiencing these changes when I initiated my jaw strengthening routine in July. Prior to then, I hadn't experienced any growth in height—or any of the aforementioned changes—since November of the prior year.
The timing can't be a coincidence.
Do you remember how old you were the last time you grew?
lol mewing can't un-ossify your bones.
@Fred It's entirely possible that people with well developed or good shaped heads/maxillae will reach or have reached their full genetic potential.
It's also entirely possible that fixing your head into its natural shape will allow your body to grow or fix itself into its full genetic potential.

Someone had written the following text on Quora, which kind of implies similar things as the posts made on the forum you linked to. While likely nonsense, I wonder how he came up with the age 35 in particular as the upper limit of height growth:

Pituitary Gland Meditation Height Growth
There are several people in the world who are not so happy with their height and they search for the ways to grow their height even at the age of 25-35. Well, before proceeding to height growth tips and techniques, you must know one thing about it that your height depends on pituitary glad hormone. So, in order to work on your height, you must work on your pituitary gland and a 5 minute meditation can help you achieve that.
HOW TO INCREASE HEIGHT WITH PITUITARY GLAND MEDITATION ?
Pituitary gland is just located in the middle of your skull behind the bridge of your nose. This pea-sized gland plays a crucial role in increasing your height. It can be stimulated with the help of meditation to grow your height.
Meditation Method
Just sit with your eyes closed and focus on your pituitary gland assuming that it is being stimulated and it works very effectively. You need to concentrate there for 5-10 minutes and do this daily. You will see surprising effects in 2-3 months and this is no magic, this is science. To see the results, you must practice this meditation daily without any gaps.

Please do this daily, be very patient, and keep doing your stretching exercises. Also good food goes a long way in helping!

@Progress What's nonsense? Meditation making you taller? Or the sphenoid bone stimulating the pituitary gland and making you taller?

The former. It sounds reasonable that unrestricted cranial structure would allow the pituitary gland to function optimally. Though there is some validity to the claim that by directing attention at a certain area of the body blood flow and cellular metabolism within that area will increase, 5 minutes of meditation seems an awfully short time.

I thought this and the other guy's post must have been BS, confirmation bias at best, but um...same thing here.
