Overweight children can hit puberty early, but generally girls hit it about age 7 to 16 and boys its about 11 or 12 to 16 so there's no way to speed up the process or slow it down.

There are hormone substitutes but they will not be used unless you are very late in starting puberty. Are you 16-years-old yet ? if so then visit the doctor, if not then you still have time.

Testosterone hormone replacements will only be used if you are in your later teens and there are no signs of puberty yet beginning.

Will an increase in testosterone make you taller?

This would depend on your age (and more specifically: bone maturation). If one has completed puberty (excepting any estrogen defficiency/resistance) testosterone, or any hormone for that matter, will not effect height. Before growth plate fusion, however, an increase in testosterone ios necessary for a male to reach full potential height. However, the testosterone increase will eventually hault growth permanently (due to an increase is subsequent estrogen levels, which naturally will eventually cause growth plates to close). So, during puberty, yes the hormone will temporarily increase growth, until eventually: the inevitable end to longitudal growth.
