Answers:
It's certainly possible! Technically your growing slows down after puberty, but that does not mean it stops! You still have a chance to grow, when I was around fifteen I grew two inches in one year. Now I'm almost as tall as my dad, and he's freaking tall :) You continue growing until you're around 20 or so.Health Question & Answer

It all depends on you diet, genetics, sleep and how much you've grown already. If you haven't grown in a while, chances are you'll stay around the height you are now. But eat well, get enough sleep and you could grow more. Depending on genetics, you'll grow up until a certain age, so really, it depends...Health Question & Answer

Girls usually stop growing at 15 so you may have reached your peak height already. Sometimes there is no further growth 2 or 3 years after your first period.

Further growth after 15 is possible but uncertain.Health Question & Answer
