Is it possible to grow an inch taller naturally after 19?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely but maybe: Most men stop growing around age 18- but occasionally some will grow until age 21 or so. Taking measures to increase your production of growth hormone might help, but if your growth plates have closed (like most 19 yo's) then you've reached your max.
