Will I grow taller anymore?

[Anonymous]

I heard that you stop growing a couple of years after you start your period. I started mine when I was 11, am now 14 (nearly 15) I'm 5'5". Do you think I'll grow taller? Or can you never tell?

[Draachen]

A female stops growing around 3 years after her first period. I don't expect you to share that information, so you can figure it out using what I just told you. Most girls are done growing by your age, though.

[Asker]

Cool, thanks! I actually did share it haha

[EyeSeaYew]

My doctor told me that if a girl hasn't grown at ALL, not an inch, for a year, that typically means she's done growing.

[Asker]

Does less than an inch count?

[EyeSeaYew]

Possibly, although if you grow less than an inch that likely means you're slowing down and nearing the end of your growth phase.

[Asker]

Oh, cool. Thanks a lot!

It depends on genetics also, how tall are your parents? And are you 5'5" since 11 ? If yes then you won't be growing any taller.

[Asker]

My mum is 5'7", and my dad is 6'2". I wasn't very clear, sorry. I started my period at 11.

It seems like girls stop growing like at 14-15 years old. You might grow a little bit more, but not too much.

[Gabby21924]

I got mine when I was 11 and I definitely had stopped growing by 14 so unfortunately you probably have too

[Asker]

Ohh, okay. Thanks! I don't mind, it's easy to shop for clothes this way. But not books... Damn...

[Gabby21924]

Don't worry too much about it, most girls your age have trouble finding the right books ;)

[Asker]

Haha, I meant because at my local library the put all the books I like really high up.

[SamuelB]

It's entirely possible but 5'5 is pretty normal for a woman.

[Asker]

Ah, okay. Thanks a lot!

[Iron_Man]

Yes you will get tall Good luck

[Asker]

How tall do you think?

[Iron_Man]

Dont hold me to this everyone is different but I would say two or three more Inches

[Asker]

Oh, okay. Thanks a lot!

[Iron_Man]

You bet my friend I hope you grow nice and tall

[Asker]

Really? I wouldn't like being tall... Although it would definitely have it's perks..

[Iron_Man]
