I turned 17 in February and I'm currently around 5'5"–5'6". My dad is 6'0" and my mom is 5'3". I recently had X-rays done, and the doctor said my growth plates are closing and that I don’t have much growth left, and that I probably won’t grow past 5'7".

However, I think hes trying to botch me because he also said that no matter what I had done like eating better, sleeping more, or playing sports it wouldn’t have affected my height at all and that those things are basically a myth, which sounds questionable to me.

So I wanted to ask: do you guys think growing past 5'7" is still achievable?
