Done growing/no: At the age of 20, or 24 as your profile now shows, you have stopped growing taller.Males usually stop between 16-18 when their growth centers close.There is no effect of sexual activity on growth.This includes self or partner sex. Self sex did not make you short.Yoour height is more dependent on your genetic makeup than anything else.
