Hi Thank you for asking HCM I have gone through your query.Masterbation doesn't stop increasing height. As you are only 16 your height will increase.You can do exercises like ringing jogging swimming which all helps in increasing growth hormones and stimulates elongation.But avoid weight exercises before 21 years old.You should also have proteinaceous diet and proper sleep for 8 hours per day.You can include foods like fish, eggs , chicken or meat and milk products in your diet which can give you good quality protein.Malbsorption syndromes and parasites should be ruled out by checking stool routine tests.You should have deworming once an year by medications like albendazole.A non stress full life is also needed for proper growth.Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
