Hi, im 19 years old, il be 20 on the 11th of this month and I'm worrying about if I still have time to grow more or not. my height is currently 5'8 and I haven't really grown since 8th or 9th grade. I'm unsure if my height is permanent but a little hindsight, my mother was 5'7 or 5'8 and my father is 6'2 my family on his side are pretty tall. As for my mom.. not as much, I haven't been to the doctor or anything to discuss it and I've never been self conscious about my height until recently, because I feel like im not reaching my full potential. I have a good diet and I exercise frequently so im not sure if this is my set height or if im destined to be taller. I know in some cases there might be a slight delay in growing, amongst other things. I just dont know If that is the case for me. Any answers and questions would be greatly appreciated.(just to add that the last time I went to the doctor I was low on iron and I dont know if that would be a cause for growth delay).
