you are likely to grow more, don't fret it.
and no there is no way, as i said you are only 17 still time to put on those inches.
Nature will decide your Hight and many other things.
my brother grew at least 6 inches in height from 18 to 21 then some he is now a strapping 6ft
Stilts!
how tall are your parents ?
Have you tried the rack ?

There are such things as growth hormone but I doubt anyone would prescribe a course of them. Best thing you can do is accept yourself. Doing so gives you a healthy mental attitude and makes life so much better.
You are well within normal range for a female, at 17 it is unlikely you will get any taller there are far more important things to worry about. If you are healthy and fit working on your core and posture will make sure you make the most of every inch
Oh, and I have heard about treatments where legs are broken, pulled slightly apart, and bone grows across the gap; done time and time again ! But again, I can't see that being prescribed for a normal healthy individual.
my niece was quite small for 16, 17, she is now a six footer.
being 6ft tall.
And there was me, picturing her gradually turning into a spider.
that was why i clarified it OG
That kind of late spurt is rarer in girls. The treatment involving breaking bones and using a screw to lengthen them as they grow back was used on Lionel Messi, only available where the person would be expected to be abnormally short and have trouble in later life. Done when they are still relatively young.
Accept yourself as you are and as you will be at 20. Yearning to be something you are not leads to sadness....celebrate being you just as you are and will be.
You could try repeated petty theft, that should get you a short stretch.
Youve had me singing this all morning kedrajoen
I once bought a book called "How to be three inches taller"
When I opened it all it said was , stand on it
no there isnt
dwell on something else

5'4' is OK - diego maradona was 5'3' and he did all right
and charles I 4 ' 6' but perhaps that isnt a good example

Guy Fawkes 1605 was a little longer after he had er helped the authorities with their inquiries over the gun powder plot
