Height: At the age of 18, a height of 62 inches is very short if you are a male. For a female, it's at the 15th percentile which is between average and lowest normal. These are based on the growth chart developed by the national center for health statistics.

Get evaluated: Check and see if you have an endocrine problem and see an endocrinologist. If not, give it some time, you may still grow a bit taller. There is not much else to do. For girls, out of 100 girls in the U.S. About 15 are 5 ft 2 in or shorter (http://t.Co/ioy2s2cl) and for boys less than 5% are 5 ft 2 in or shorter (http://t.Co/30wd5phq).
