Medical experts say Jyoti will not produce enough hormones to grow any taller.
Her doctor, D N Aggarwal, says that despite fractures on both her legs that refuse to heal because of a severe calcium deficiency, she is in reasonably good health.
She leads a relatively independent life and is able to walk unassisted.
