Ok so I want advice on what to do, because I'm currently 5ft 4 at 17, I started puberty around 14, where I was around 155cm (5ft 1), I started growing noticeablely at 16, where I became 157cm (5ft 1.5), and now im 5ft 4 (162cm), I've gone to doctors and told them about this, requested an x ray to see my bone age but they refused and told me to take these blood tests and then come back, haven't done them yet, planning to soon, because I've been sick, my parents are relatively short, dad's at 5ft 5, moms at 4ft 10, but the confusion begins here, my dad's father was around 5ft 8, while my mom is shorter than her sisters at around 5ft 5 to 5ft 7, my male uncles on my moms side are 5ft 9 to 6ft 2, and both were born in poorer countries, in the 1950s and in the 1970s respectively, so yeah, if you guys need other details or anything, I'd be happy to give it (please keep it appropriate), thanks.

In all honesty it is VERY unlikely you will see 5'7. Unless you started puberty very late and your growth plates dont close in the next year (which they probably will)

Isnt 14 late, also considering that I haven't reached my growth spurt yet, which usually should be 8 to 10 cm in a single year, also the fact I've only just started growing?

your parents are dwarfs dont expect any more height, you've probably maxed out potential
