I am seventeen years old right now, and I seriously haven't grown at all since I was thirteen. I am five feet, nine inches. I used to be really tall, but now I'm just average height.
I was 5'8" in the 8th grade, and the doc said I would grow 2 or 3 more inches. I never did. I'm 22 now and only 5'9". All of my bros younger and older are taller than me. Something must have stunted my growth.
I haven't really grown since the summer going into 8th grade. I went from being fairly small to being tall to now normal. I want to just get to the 6'0 mark and stop. I'm 15 right now, so it's only been two years since I really grew, but I'm going to start running again and I've heard that can help growth (plus stretching).
I stopped gaining height by the time I was 18, but I still noticed general growth in other areas like my hands, feet, and other parts well into my 20's. Even now in my 30's I've noticed my shoulders are broader than they were a few years ago.
I'm 16 and 5'8, but the doctor says I only have about an inch left to grow.

Quit Complaining!! Be happy with what height you have!!!!! -_-; Sorry, i'm bitter, i stopped growing a long time ago and i'm only 17. I'm 5'5 about 130 pounds. I would kill to be 5'8 ='( so be happy as you are, some people such as me wish with all they were that they could be that height.
