Will I grow more??? I'm already tall but would like to grow more?

I'm 16 and I'm already 5'8. Will I get any taller? I keep looking it up but some sites say girls stop growing at 18 and some say in your early 20's. Also I've heard girls stop growing two years after there first period and I've already had my period for over 2 years. I really wanna get to 5'9. Will I? Thanks for the help!

    If you're 16, chances are you're not going to grow much more. You might gain an inch or so. I stopped growing around 16 but I'm only 5'3 so consider yourself lucky that you're so tall!
