It's obvious that I inherited my father's gene,so I said it was because of gene.My nutrition was all right.

Not if your dad is only slightly taller than your mom.
Genetics.
My mother's family is short. My maternal grandpa was 5' 5", my paternal grandpa was around that height as well.
Mother is 5' 3", father is 5' 9". I'm 5' 7".
My oldest brother did manage to outgrow my dad by an inch, but I suppose that's because he was breastfed more than me maybe, or it's just genetic recombination. He's about 10 years older than me though, and I could still be growing as I'm not near 25 years of age yet. Perhaps I've still got a shy inch or two in me.
Genetics but also played with roids in my teen years (14-15 y/o), mainly decaland depot.
Father is 1.73, mother is 1.65. Mother side: grandmother - 1.54, grandfather - 1.67, one uncle is 1.76 and the rest are below 1.70. Father side: grandmother - 1.67, grandfather - 1.71, aunt - 1.66. My siblings: older sister - 1.73, me - 1.78, brother - 1.79, sister - 1.67

I thought that was a part reason.
Actually My maternal grandpa is 163cm(But he is a little bit bowed but just a little bit.Maybe his maximum height was 165cm) and grandma is 150-cm(She is very short cuz before I graduated to Junior 2，when she passed away，I was 140-150cm tall then and I could still even look upon her).My uncle is 154-155cm or so(Shorter than my 156-158cm tall mother).But I dunno why my maternal females families are not short at all cuz their avegage height is 158-160cm but male families are short.In addition my paternal grandma and my father's elder sister are below 150cm and 140-145cm tall.My father is 162cm tall and my father's elder brother is 162cm too.
Remember you could get the ht of your father or your mother plus 12 to 16 cm are you measuring it right for me i got my father which is 5.7 if i got my mother i will be 6 foot like both of my brothers
you are my twin you start you puperty early becauz you get you mothers height
i swear there is nothing called early sprut even though when i was 12 i was the tallest yeah the tallest in my school so that i will lean and go back to the back of the row to hide my ht i considerd it a curse back then stoped growing sadly
but here is the thing my brother had the same genetic sprut he is now 182 me 172 . pretty stupid to see you younger 12 yr brother bigger than you even though i got my dads height
Genetics mainly
Dad is 5'7 Mum is 4'11
Grandfathers are 5'6 and 5'4
Sister is 5'1
I was a tiny baby. I was in the 2nd percentile or something. They predicted my height at birth to be 5'2
I did ok to get to get to 5'8 and a half to be honest. 5'9 and a bit, or 176cm was probably the absolute maximum I could've been
I'm an SGA ((premature baby of one kind who not only was born earlier than normal babies but also my build is far smaller)cuz during pregnancy duration my mother didn't eat and drink enough cuz of poverty,and I didn't take in adequate nutritions(cuz the only food I can take in is my mother's breast milk)before 2 y.o to catch up peers' weights and heights.The ending is that of course my height ended below 5 percentile of millenials' average height.
