Hello pratibha ;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
The height of a female will increase till 18 yrs and the height is determined by the genes so you will get height proportionate to your parents.Also the height increases in spurts so it will start increasing again do not worry.Just take a healthy diet and do not worry.
thanks
