Depends: If you have started your menstrual periods over a year ago your growth plates may have closed already. If not, you have some growth yet. Look at your parent's heights for a sense of how tall you are meant to be based on genetic factors. Regardless of your final height, feel and act as tall as you want to be and others will see you so.

Healthy lifestyle: You are most likely to reach your tallest potential height by following a healthy diet, getting appropriate sleep & and remaining physically active.Most women have stopped growing at 17,but if you entered puberty late these may help.
