I'm 15, i was always very tall in infant and primary school, and had a major growth spurt 11-12yrs, i know girls hit puberty before boys, but i was tall even compared to the girls in my year group. I haven't really grown since yr7, i'm now 5'3 ish... my question is have a done most of my growing or am i likely to grow some more (a considerable amount)? Someone told me girls sometimes have growth spurts around 18-19yrs, is there any truth in this?

Thanks in advance x

(my Mum is 5'5 and my Brother is over 6'0, as are most of the boys in the family, if this helps)

  1. well, you may just stay that short. but, it looks like you have tall in your genes. so, yes, you may hit a growth spurt around 18-19


  2. I'm 5ft10 and i am 16. i know i haven't stopped growing as i get growing pains in my legs and i have grown a inch in the last couple of months..

    my parents are 5ft11 and 6ft1 my brother is 6ft5 (and still growing)  i also have a sister who is 5ft4 and another at 5ft11 it really does just depend..

  3. no girls usually stop grow when there about 15 but boys can continue to grow even in there 20's

  4. You probably won't grow that much more, maybe another inch or so.

  5. Okay well you are 15 and most girls stop growing around 16-18yrs but since your mom is 5'5 and your brother is 6'0 i say you might get up to 5'4 at the least. You say by 7yrs old you were 5'3 well it seems to me that you have already hit your growth spurt! Well i am not very sure about when kids growth spurts occur but i depending on your genes from your family i say you just might have another growth spurt around 17yrs old so you will more then likely be betwen 5'3 and 5'5. I hope that helps if not i am sorry=]

  6. You may or may not just depends on your genes. Females develop well into their 20's. Dont quote me please.

  7. Well your Mum is 5'5 their is a good chance your not going to be 6'0 the genes might not be their. It is true their can be a growth spurt in late teens depends on the person. You might just start growing slowly at this point till your 20's. Its Genetics and your brother is 6 foot so their is a good potential to be taller than now. Remember your doctor when you go for your yearly Physical because he can actually measure and calculate approximately how tall you will grow. My doctor got pretty close off by only an inch from when I was born said i was going to be 6 foot when i was 1 years old and im 5' 11 now. Doctors can make a good estimate ask him when you go for your school physical.

  8. u might grow a little bit more!

  9. you can never really know...my doctor told me i would be over 6 feet tall but i'm 5'10. so in my experience, height is not easily predicted, so don't get your hopes up just cuz your family is tall.  

  10. ur gonna grow

    my godsister is 16 and is

    only about 5' 1...if ur mom

  11. you might grow a little bit more.

  12. im my opinion, you will grow probably a few more inches
