Hi Welcome to HealthCareMagic
The age from 13 to 18 yrs is an adolescent age, there will be spurt growth due to surge of growth hormone... The main Hormone which is necessary for Height is growth hormone, others are Thyroxine, testosterone, corticosteroids are the supporting hormones... If you feel then child is not growing , then consult and physician
