Because you are only 15. Many men have a growth spurt later, sometimes when they are nearly 20. Boys continue to grow and develop well into their late teens and early twenties, and the male hormone, testosterone, is part of what determines the rate of growth and development. Since you are only 15 years old, then there is nothing to worry about. Also, since some males grow and develop at different rates than other boys do, you should 'catch up' to those that developed more quickly than you did in just a few short years. You are normal, and there are many, many other boys worrying about the same thing you are, so don't feel alone, inferior, or abnormal, because you are not.
Males typically cease growth in height when they reach about 21 years of age. This is because when this age is reached, all the cartilage of the epiphyseal plate in the bone is gone. Growth in body weight can change due to diet and lifestyle choices (e.g. exercise) but due to the cessation of growth, not much weight will be significantly gained to accomodate increases in height like it did before.
No, it shouldn't.
we could tell by our height because if your height grows your bones are still growing i know this because our bones need calcium to grow and that's how we grow
Plants continue to grow throughout their life. Animals grow during certain period in their life cycle. Tissue is the cause of growth in plants. While in animal cells there is a complete absence of meristematic tissues in animals.

No, I have a moustache, yet am very short for my age.
Women typically stop growing in height around the age of 18. However, growth plates in the bones usually close by early to mid-20s, which signifies the end of any significant growth in height.
It is only possible to increase one's height if there was a medical condition inhibiting growth in the first place or a person has not finished growing. There are also rumoured surgical procedures to help lengthen a persons legs.
You might, possibly, be talking about human growth hormone.
Your height depends on human growth factor that is released by the pituitary gland up through you late teens. That's when your growth plates in your bones, which are made of cartilage, fuse so the bone stops growing longer. Genetics plays a large role in how long bones grow and when they stop growing.
Menstruation will not stunt your growth, you have nothing to worry about. Eat a healthy diet and you will grow normally.
No. Unless you have a growth disorder, you cannot increase in height at all, due to growth when you are 26, especially if you are a female. Unlike males, who may continue growing until early 20's, females usually stop growing after 16.
I think the muscles growing bigger would make you taller
No, it does not stunt growth. The ends of the bone are still growing when young, and some people thought that if the bone was broken your growth would be stunted, but this is undocumented. Lifting is very beneficial at all ages.
You can't be absolutely sure unless you have had an x-ray of your growth plates which are confirmed to be fused.
You're asking: At what age do boys stop growing? Physical height generally stops at or around 18 but may vary on the individual's growth cycle and genes.
On average, males stop growing in height between the ages of 18 and 20. This is when the growth plates at the ends of the long bones in their body fuse and stop adding length. However, every individual is different and growth patterns can vary.
