While some individuals will stop growing before age 18, many people, particularly men, continue to grow physically well into their mid-20s. About 95% of a young woman's peak bone mass is present by age 20, and some overall gains in mass often continue until age 30. The average boy has his fastest rate of growth in height between ages 13 and 14, and stops growing between ages 17 and 18.

You can take multivitamin and protein powder for growth. As you are 21 it is difficult to increase height but you can give a try. Do regular exercise like cycling, swimming and pull ups. It will help.
