I just turn 15 and when I was 14 I was like 5'4 and a half. After checking my height again I'm 5'5, I only grew half an inch. Is this the end of my growth?

I bet it's not.
Boys (men) have been known to have growth spurts up until the age of 21. I had a growth spurt at your age in which I grew 12 inches in 12 months. I'm 6'1" now.
And now my daughter, who should be taking after me (at least a little), is 5'2", and she's 15 too.
But just so you know, some of the biggest men I know are shorter than you are. Height doesn't mean a lot when you're talking about how much of a man someone is. Don't worry about it. Everyone gets their own stature, but it's not height that makes you a grownup, it's maturity.

The major growth spurt in boys usually occurs between the ages of 14 to17, during puberty. This may take longer, it may occur sooner or later. Other males in your family may have similar growth spurts---talk to your father, any uncles, older brothers, cousins, or grandfathers. Your ultimate height will usually reflect the height of one or both of your parents. If you are still developing, that is voice changing, body changing (hair growing on face, under arms, in groin; penis and testicles growing; having erections) These are all signs of puberty and it takes several years. You may be slowing down or you may have just started your growth spurt. It depends how far you are in puberty. 5'5" is an average height for a man. I you are concerned, talk to your family, don't keep it to yourself. This is a difficult time in your life where everything is changing. Your family doctor may also shed some light. With a simple physical exam and perhaps an xray of your hands, he can ease your concerns. The xray will reveal your bone age. The bone age suggests how much longer you have to grow. TALK TO YOUR FAMILY FIRST, YOU'LL BE SURPRISED HOW MUCH INFO THEY WILL PROVIDE.

Dude I was a late grower. I was 5'10'' when I was 17, I grew another 2 inches by the time I was about 21.

No. Boys generally do their major growing through puberty. Usually finishing between 19 and 21. Girls generally stop growing when they hit puberty usually around 14 to 16.

The truth is that we all produce growth hormones throughout our entire lives. These primarily repair damage to our body once we stop 'growing' per se. However people have been known to either continue to grow or experience sudden growth spurts well into their twenties and beyond.
If you maintain a healthy life and your genetics permit you will continue to grow.

If it really is in effortless words 0.5 an inch at the same time as it really is tricky and also you're 30. i'd commence taking it up the backdoor as that is going to be the acceptable way for you to get orgasmic exhilaration. Prostate stimulation also observed as milking the prostate.

No, as others have said you don't stop growing until you are around 21.
