Specializes in Diagnostic Radiology

At 18: your skeletal "growth plates" are likely closed and there is little or no potential for significant height growth, assuming you have gone through puberty. If puberty was delayed this might not be the case. See your doc, the status of your bone age, i.e. the potential for additional growth, can be assessed with a wrist xray.
