Your height will be: ...What your height will be. This is determined by genetics. At 16 years old you might still have several inches coming, or you might be close to your final height.

Balanced nutrition: At sixteen your growth centers have some potential for growth & simple measures help the best.Keep active & a healthy diet but don't expect to grow taller than your genetic potential.If you want to know how much longer you have to grow, an x-ray of your wrist & hand can be analysed for bone maturity & your doc can give you an estimate.
