Question about teenage development?

I am an 18 year old male( turning 19 in 2 months) and I have grown 3/4 of an inch in the past year. However my growth as always kind of been steady, I never really had a huge growth spurt( peak was 2 inches in one year 14-15) At 5'8 3/8 at just 15 my growth pattern told me that I was going to be 5'11, well it never happened( Dad is 5'11 mom 5-4-5'5) Both of my grandpas were 6 feet). when I turned 17 I had grown only to 5 foot 9. I Thought I was done growing( even though I looked like a 14 year old without any hair on my face) Well when I turned 18 during last summer, all of a sudden my voice started cracking, started growing light facial hair, fine chest hairspimples all over the place and grew 3/4 of an inch to my current height of 5'9 3/4. I still have very oily skin and my voice still breaks occasinaly and my facial hair grows very slow. Do you think I am going to be one of those people who doesn't stop growing until 21 or I have stopped already? Has anyone hear experienced this

Question about teenage development?
i think you will keep growing men seem to grow later than women
Reply:as like with girls..there is only a general age to start puburty and end..with boys its the same except that boys due start later in there teens..it is all hereditary on your development..you sound like it is happening later than you have hoped but it is usually between the ages of 14-21..where with girls it can start from10-17....you sound very normal to me..have a great summer
Reply:Men tend to grow until they're about 21. You sound like you're still growing and having changes in you body, maybe you'll be 5' 11" after all. Embrace the change.
