Generally the height growth happens from 9-15yrs in females & the growth spurt rate reduces after attaining puberty.
So you can still grow but it will be slower on comparison to others who have attained puberty after 10yrs of age.

Height growth in girls typically follows a general pattern but can vary depending on genetics, nutrition, health, and hormonal factors. Here's an overview:
Infancy to childhood (0–10 years): Steady growth of about 2 inches (5 cm) per year.
Puberty (around 8–13 years): A noticeable growth spurt occurs. Most girls grow rapidly between ages 10–14, often gaining 3–4 inches (7.5–10 cm) per year during peak years.
Post-puberty (14–18 years): Growth slows significantly and usually stops by age 16–18, after menstruation has started and the growth plates close.
In ur case ratehr then rapid growth at 8-13 , it has slowed down.
