Generally 16-17 years of age. Boys grow until 21-22.

Generally around 18; however that may not be the case for EVERYone....I was 5' 4' from about 16 until I turned 21 and grew another inch to 5' 5"!! My mom says the same thing happened to her when she was 21. You can't change your genetics and your rate of growth, but it is highly likely you will grow some more! Just give it time!

For you being short might have to do alot with your genetic traits, is your mom or dad short? Any other sibilings?
Also girls grow at different rates and different times, they usually stop before 18-20, it depends.
Don't be to worked up about being short becasue its not a bad thing at all..I am short to, i'm 5'1 and I am 15 also!! :)
p.s-us short people rock! hehe

My sister stopped growing the day she learned how to spell when correctly, so you should keep growing until you're at least 20.

usually when girls reach the age of 18 they will stop growing.

sure you can grow more, you have another 2 years of growth probably, and will grow about 1.5 to 2 inches per year so yes you can have a height of about 5'2 to about 5'4...depends on your parents genes

Yes, you do! However, drink some milk and play some sports.
