At what age do you stop growing?!


Question:

At what age do you stop growing?

im 21 years old and im 5'6....am I gonna grow any taller than this? I heard that you stop growing at 25 but i havent really grown any since high school, so does that mean im done growing? Or will I sprout maybe 2 or 3 inches more within the next couple years?


Answers:

Development can go on until 20-22 years (as for the wisdom tooth, i.e.), but anyway, it's quite improbable to grow 2-3 in. more at 21!! The most part of the bone growth happens during the adolescence and often the sexual development runs together, but after 18 years it's not common having a great height increase. At least, your height looks in the norm (complete), so just don't hold to fake promises!
