If you’ve already had your growth spurt how much taller do you usually grow?
I’m 15 years old, 5,3 and i’ve already had my growth spurt. My mother is 5,6 and my father is about 5,7.

There’s no "set" growth rate and it varies from child to child.
After the growth spurt, growth continues but slows down to a steadier rate.Note that growth spurt can occur within a wide age range. Each individual may experience growth spurt earlier or later than the average age. Most girls reach their full height by 17 while most boys by 19, although lots of individuals continue to grow into the twenties. The vertebrae in the spinal column continue to grow in length and width until about age thirty.
The growth you experience and the height that you ultimately acquire is the result or heredity and the environment. Therefore it will be incorrect to assume that the maximum height you obtain is solely the result of heredity.
Environmental factors that affect your height include disease, stress, nutrition, exercise and sleep. They are just as important as heredity in determining growth. You may have little or no control over your genes, but you may manipulate the environment you are in. By understanding these factors, you can use them to your full advantage.
you wont know exactly how tall you’re going to be but you’ll stop growing around 17, 18 or 19. try stretching so you can release the tensions and you will grow a little.
im about 5’4 1/2 and im younger than you. everyone is different so you never know
The only things that stunt growth in our lifestyles can all be directed to just common sense if you have a lousy nutrition everyday, if you lack the proper/essential/beneficial foods to eat daily, it won’t necessarily stop you from growing, but it doesn’t exactly increase the chances, either. Also, lack of flexibility has shown to hinder more growth, as the muscle tissues around your growing bones may or may not be the most potentially stretched. Just in general, nothing really stunts growth, but simple things such as getting at least 6-8 hours of sleep (hormones levels are released during sleeptime, producing growth; also, to rebuild muscle and give energy), staying physically fit (cardio, aerobic/anaerobic variations), and simply staying active thoroughout the day is all a pathway to growth. There are ebooks sold online that claim to teach you the secrets of growing taller they are scams no ebook can make you grow taller and if you really want to grow taller even after puberty then check this out http://www.super-growth.com or http://www.howtogrowtallernaturally.com I heard about it on a health forum strangely enough. I tried it not expecting much since l am 27….and I have been using it for 3 Months and I actually bought it for my legs ,l see a 2 inches difference in my legs already. it has worked really well for me. Some companys are now making already mixed versions, it works though there isn’t much for scientific evidence supporting the manufacturer’s claim, but it works, also my friend tried it and it really worked out well for her too.
