Can you grow an inch at age 19 for males?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Many males: have stopped their growth spurts by this age. However, that doesn't mean it is impossible - especially if you entered puberty late in life.

It could happen: Former NBA star David Robinson grew 4 inches while he was playing college ball at the Naval Academy. It's unusual but possible. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
