Signs that a teenage girl may no longer be growing taller could include no significant height increase over the past one to two years, or only minimal growth. Additionally, she may show a gradual decrease in body fat, becoming slender or thin. Another possible sign is the complete closure of the growth plates (epiphyseal lines). The presence of these signs typically indicates that a teenage girl has stopped growing in height.
