Definite possibility: that you have some growth left at age 14.....Your Pediatrician can probably tell you more! Hope this is helpful Dr Z

This is likely : to be the height that you will remain at. You have likely reached your maximum height.

Maybe not: Most girls would stop growing about 2 years after their first period. You did not mention your status or timing. Your parental heights would suggest you could grow taller, up to 168cm. However, if you have not grown at all in 2 years you may be done. An x-ray of your wrist/hand could be examined for growth centers.If they are open you may grow taller, if closed, you are done.
