When will I stop growing?!


Question: When will I stop growing?
How tall will I be and when will I stop growing? I'm 12 years old and 8 months and I'm 5'6 and 123 pounds.My mom is 5'3 and my dad is 6'2...how tall do you think I'll be? When will I stop growing..I heard that your period can play a role as to see how much more you'll grow so if its true I got my period when I was 10 and started puberty at around 7 or 8. (If your bra size changes anything about height then im a 34A)

Answers:

Since you've had your period for at least 2 years, you won't grow any taller. So thats how tall your going to stay.

Your breasts don't stop growing until you are about 20, so you still have time to grow. Be happy how you are because your beautiful, honey!(:



You read like you have precocious puberty. Some girls bloom earlier than others each with their own timetable. Some develope breast early (and get alot of unwanted attention) while others (like yourself) may have as much pubic hair as your mother before your teens. Precocious puberty does effect someones overall height. The growth spurt happens early then wains off, leaving most afflicted to be overall shorter than their peers.



You could grow until 15 or 16 (in height). It depends if you've already gotten a huge growth spurt yet.
