Hello.. Boys generally grow till the age of 21..so I think you'll gain some more height...but yes height depends on race,your ancestors, nutrition, environment and various other factors too...you can indulge yourself in outdoor physical activity of your choice...anything like cycling, swimming, basketball, volley ball will help you out... Medicines available in the market are not medically approved nor the effects are known so I suggest you not to take them
