    I doubt you have stopped growing. You still have a good 3 years left to grow. My ex husband grew until he was 21.

    No, you haven't. Usually between the ages of 18-21 or 22, the growth plates will start to seal shut at the joints, and this will signify the official stopping of growth. Doctors can take x-rays and determine how much more you can grow and when you are likely to stop growing.

    No, when you start shaving has nothing to do with growing, I remember one boy in Jr High, he could grow a beard if he wanted. It did not slow his growth at all

    No, I started at 14, and continued to grow.

    You are becoming a man.

    Go enjoy your teens years, and make the most of your life by getting a good education.

    Haha I'm a girll and I'm 5 foot 2 and I'm 19. I've been finished growing since 17th grade. :)

    Everyone's different, You might get to be about 5 foot 9 or 10.
    You've still got years left to grow.



    EDIT: HAHA 7th grade. :) (lol jm, I'm having one of those days. :D )
