Hello, Thanks for the query. Height of a person increases as long as linear growth of bones continues. Our long bones increase in length till the age of 18 years. Then their growth fuses. So height can effectively grow only up to that period. After that good regulated exercise and diet can help in adding muscle girth and may help in increase of about 2 to 3 cms in height. But after 19 years there is no increase in height. Masturbation has no role in it. Thanks.
