That's a tough one to answer. My dd's pediatrician said that after a girl's period starts than their growing slows way down. We also were told this by her nutritionist. I've read that you can still grow at least 1-3 inches a year after your period starts. Someone else said that a girl has the potential to keep growing until the age of 22. I wish I had a solid answer for you. I'd like to know too in order to tell my dd! I hope this helps a little.

well maybe around 18 or even 20 who knows it really all depends

you will grow for least another year but probably 2 or 3 years more yet.

You are likely to stop growing 2 years after your first period so you might grow for another 2 years or a bit less and you might perhaps peak at 5'9.
