Unlikely to happen: Women will usually put on about 2-3 inches after their first menses and stop.(about 2 yrs after 1st cycle) The hormones that pushed you to develop and start your cycles also signal the growth centers to finish up.An x-ray of your wrist/hand can be examined for open growth centers.Once the growth centers close you are fininhed growing taller.
