If i am tall and started my period at 14, when will i reach top height?

Depends: Most women grow 2-3 inches after 1st menses. The actual end of linear growth occurs when your growth centers in the bones close. An x-ray of the wrist/hand is a standard way of assessing future growth potential. When your x-ray shows your centers have closed you stop. That is usually 15-17 in women.
