Can I go to gym at age of 17?

Question

Asked for Male, 17 Years

I belong to a part of society where going to gym is not considered good but what I have studied and researched online is different. Right now I am in a very confusing state and need answers for the following: #Can I go to gym? #Will going to gym affect my height? #What exercises should I do and don't in gym? #Does going to gym have health benefits? (My father's height is 5,6 foot and my mother is approximately 4,10 foot tall)
