There are various reasons behind this.
Firstly, our spine consists of fluid-filled discs placed in between bones called vertebrae. But as the years pass by, these discs begin to lose fluid and degrade, causing them to flatten. As a result, the distance between the vertebrae decreases, thus decreasing our height and making us shorter.
Secondly, as we age, many of us suffer from osteoporosis. This makes our bones so weak that they develop microfractures. Now, as most of these fractures happen in the front of our vertebrae, it causes forward rounding of our back, a condition called kyphosis. This gives us a stooped posture, thus making us look shorter.
Lastly, as aging also causes loss of muscle mass, especially in the abdomen, it can make us slouch. Hence, this can also lead to a stooped posture, thus giving us an appearance of being shorter.
