Please Kind Sirs/madams, I Wish To Inquire About My Height.

Please kind sirs/madams, I wish to inquire about my height. I just reached an age of 17 this November but sadly still remaining at a height of 5'5. Unfortunately, my family cannot spare much for a bone age X-ray session so I do not know the state of my bones. I started growing facial and armpit hair at the age of 15. My father is 5'8 and my mom 5'2.5. My father's side grandparents are tall and so as my mom's mother but her father is 5'4. Will I still be able to grow taller because I am really worried and discouraged with the constant belittling from my peers and the community. My diet is well set with lots of soybean milk, protein and vegetables. Also, I do about 15 mins of stretching everyday. Please do help me out. Thank you so much in advance.
