You will have a chance to grow until you're eighteen. If y0u are hoping to grow more, improve your diet. More protein, more beef. Ask your doctor if it is all right for you take Vitamin B complex. It might help you to grow a little bit more. And the best part? Exercise, especially stretching your muscles.

Answer 4

between the age of 17 or 18 or sometime 19 but it usually between the age 17 and 18

Answer 5

Ask your mom or if you have a sister ask her when she stopped growing. Chances are you'll be within a year of that. Most girls stop growing between 14 and 17.

I didn't grow from 17-19, then shot up another inch at age 19...making me a mere 5'11
