Yes, there is still a chance. My step-son was 5'4" at 18. By 20 he was taller than me at 6'1". (His father was 5'9".) No guarantee.
I've heard of a product called HeightMax. Don't know if it works or not though.

I am not an expert, but I think in general it's unlikely you will grow any more. Based on your age and the height of your parents, it seems about right to be 5ft 4. I have never heard of any medicines, (herbal or stronger!) that can make you grow, no matter what they promise, so I wouldn't waste your money. It has been said that Pilates can increase your height by a fraction because you are doing deep stretching of the muscles and of the skeleton. As it is a great exercise anyway (as is Yoga!) it might be worth a try. Remember too, that having good posture always makes a person stand better and look taller, so stand up straight and enjoy something like Pilates and you'll be fine! 5ft 4 is the average height anyway, so you are just perfect!
