Growing

Hi i was wondering what the typical age is when you stop growing as i’m a girl who is turning 16 in january. I want to be taller but i really don’t think i’m going to grow anymore.

    Your body generally has fully matured and stopped developing in your early to mid 20s and you can grow taller anytime before then but for most girls they stop growing around the age of 15-16. But if you’re a late bloomer, you may still grow 🙂 Look at how tall your parents are, and you can kind of figure out how tall you’ll be.

    Hi Angel, I grew a bit between the ages of 17 and 20. Sadly, I am still short though lol. I think most people will not grow much after about 20 years of age. 🙂

    Hi Angel,
    If its any help my daugher thought she would never grow and she was 13 at high school and small and still everyone was taller than her. By the time she was 21 she was alot taller. I don’t know why she was a slow grower though.
