Does the gym stop your height growth or slows it?

No
You're in fact might grow taller since posture is gonna improves combined with a rush of hormones and a better body composition

Just don't injure yourself and you'll be fine

but you will eventually injure yourself tbh, that's something people should be aware of

if you're always training close to failure and pushing heavy weight, at some point you'll probably deal with some minor injury or pain. just focus on keeping good form and don't sacrifice it just to lift heavier

also aim for around 5 to 9 reps if you wanna keep things controlled while still lifting heavy. i've been going to the gym for 5 years and i know plenty of other guys who train too, and pretty much everyone gets hurt in some way eventually. just be smart about it and don't push through actual injuries like nothing happened
