what age were you?

and...

are you a male orr a female?

and..

is it true that you can stop growing after 2yrs you got your period if you're a female?

:)

Answer 1

As a female you can grow up to the time of your early twenties.

Answer 2

i was about 17.

i'm a girl.

i'm 5'5".

as for the period/2-year thing, that sounds really unlikely to me. most girls have their periods around age 10-12, and you don't see many full grown women walking around that are the size of 12-14 year-olds.

i had my first period when i was 10, and at that age i was around 5' tall. so no, i didn't stop growing.

Answer 3

I was 17, I'm female and stopped growing at 5' 7"

Answer 4

Males usually stop growing at 18.

Females usually stop growing at 15 and often there is no further growth 2 or 3 years after a girl's first period.

Answer 5

females stop growing at 18 and males stop at 25. at least thats what im told

Answer 6

4'11". 14 years old. Female. No, it's not true. I have a friend who has had her period since she was 12 and she's 17 now, and still growing.

Answer 7

i got mine at 12, and stopped growing at 16.  i've been 5'2" for 15 years.

Answer 8

5 foot 6 I was 17 and I was a female and no it is is not true you

stop growing two years after your period otherwise girls today would all be midgets given the number of young women on this site who advise they started their periods at 9 to 11 years old!!

Answer 9

I'm 22 and female- and I grew very quickly when I was young so I stopped growing when I was about 12- no joke I was taller than everyone at 5'2.5" and haven't gone past that since.  Now I'm short to average compared to my peers.  

And to the last part I'm not sure.  I wouldn't worry so much about it though.  There are so many people at millions of different heights and they grew at different rates.  It's a hard thing to predict.
