My age is 18 and i'm 186 cms tall. i am worried about my height. am i too tall?

Probably not: If you are female as your name suggests, your height is certainly well above average but it may be normal if one or both of your parents are very tall. By 18 you should be finished growing but if you are still growing you ought to see an endocrinologist
