Depends, some stop growing at 15, and others at 21. Most will have reached their adult height by 17.
If you've grown a substantial amount in the past 12 months, odds are growth won't abruptly stop but it could exponentially reduce. Sadly, it doesn't reduce linearly. It's not like if you grew 3 inches last year you'll certainly grow 2 inches this year but it very well could be maybe only an inch or less.
I sincerely doubt you will grow another two inches to be honest.

This. And it is possible OP hasn't been measuring correctly.

I grew a little at 20. At least my shoes grew by two sizes in less than four months. I think I might have grown a bit in height after that. It really depends. There are rare cases where there is extremely late growth, but going by averages, you should be done growing. You lose nothing by maintaining the best diet and care for maximising potential growth. Even if you don't grow in height, I noticed that my frame got much bigger from around 19 to 21. I also put on 15 kilograms of muscle mass without doing any physical activity really. So it is likely that with optimal conditions the worst result you will see is that you will fill out nicely. You should notice your strength improve a lot too. So you are losing nothing by following this advice. Don't stress it as you have already passed an important threshold. Anything extra is a benefit, but you do not stand to lose by being stuck with sub optimal height.
