Male or Female?: Typically, and not always, males finish their growth spurt at age 21, whereas females end at 18. Most of your height is genetic so there are no real tips on how to become tall. At younger ages, milk, diet, & exercise may help. Ultimately it is mostly genetic and most likely related to the height of your parents.
