Slower growth: The growth rate of most teenagers starts to slow as you get into the later teenage years. You may still grow a little bit over the course of the next several months but you should not expect to see 1-2 inches in a matter of 2 months.

Growth: Be glad. Most boys have done the majority of their height growth by age 16 years old (older if they started puberty late). So - be happy about that growth spurt.
