Can i increase my height by 1 inch or so after age of 21? i am a girl.

Unlikely to happen: At 21 your growth centers have likely closed so don't expect to grow taller.If you want to know for sure an x-ray of your wrist & hand can be analysed for bone maturity & tell if the growth centers remain open to new growth.
