I'll give you a quick answer, before this is deleted. I was 5'4 on my drivers license when I turned 16. I am 6'0" now. I got my growth spurt when I was 17. There's hope!

Maybe a question for your family doctor and not *checks notes* a subreddit about space?

Yeah this is the wrong subreddit but for what it's worth I was one of the shortest in my class age 12 and one of the tallest age 17. growth spurts are wild in the teenage years. keep eating healthily and don't worry.

I got a growth spurt around that. Grew like 3 inches. However my scoliosis also worsened at the same time so i actually did not get taller.

OP, this really should’ve been posted to r/ask, or really anywhere other than a sub about space…
