Can a girl grow taller in her 19?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely to happen: At 19 the growth centers have likely closed so no more linear growth is expected.If you want to know for sure an x-ray of the wrist ; hand can be analysed for bone maturity ; tell if the growth centers remain open to new growth. A bone maturity more consistent with 14 would leave some room for growth. Most girls get 2.5 in or 5 cm after their first menses and stop.
