I'm 19 years old and I've noticed I've been getting taller over the last few months. I've been trying to cut for the lasses, but now I'm a little nervous it could fuck up my height gains. Should I be worried? My deficit has been pretty moderate. ~500 cals

Do you have body fat? Are you in positive nitrogen balance? That's what it comes down to.
You can make muscle gains while eating at a caloric deficit as long as you're in an anabolic state AKA positive nitrogen balance. Positive nitrogen balance = growth (for muscle, bone, everything). Also, you must have fat on your body, if you're an extremely low body fat, then this probably won't work, but for your average person it will... since if you're eating at a deficit, where is your body going to get that extra energy from? Your fat stores.
In order to be in a positive nitrogen balance you must be consuming adequate protein.

If you're genuinely still getting taller I wouldn't risk anything. I'd probably keep a slight cal surplus, aiming for a clean bulk (unless you're actually fat).
Height is for life, a bit of extra chubb can be corrected next season, and most girls don't care too much about a bit of fat over the top if it's obvious you've got muscle underneath.
That said, I'm 6'3'' ottermode so ymmv
