You physically stop growing at age 18 but there are a few odd balls out there who grow to age 19!.
The growth after wards are just the body permanently fixing look bones!. Example sutures in the head get closed!. Myelination of the frontal lobe does not start until 21!.

This is the main reason why many people mistakenly believe we grow physically until age 22/23!.

But back to the main point you are short according to the average height of americans as off 2005!.
The average height is 5 feet 8!.5 inches!. For women the average is 5 feet 6!.5 inches (CDC source)!.
For the 1990s you are considered tall!. What we deem tall changes every 5-10 years!. But if you are so worried!. Then look at asia the men range from 5 feet to 5 feet 9 inches (5 6 is their average)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes!.
but don't worry!. that's kind of above average for girls, but other girls r like!.!.!.5'2" to 5'7" so tht doesn't matter!.!.!.
if ur really into basketball, u prob don't stand a chance!.
and i don't think you CAN be too short!. just short!. so don't worry!. [its not like u can change it!]Www@Answer-Health@Com

5"7 isnt short!. Really!. The average male height is 5"8 so your perfectly fine!

Im 16 and am also 5"7, and not bothered what people call me! A lot of men grow until they are 21 or 22, so dont panic!. You are who your are!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should grow upward until about age 22, but 5'7" is average adult height!

good luck
