in women does height increses till 18 yrs or does it stop after you start having period?

Answer 1

You can keep growing into your 20s. Also, you can stop in your teens. You'll just have to wait and see.

Answer 2

until 18

Answer 3

"The height that you achieve depends on several factors: 1) The genes you inherit from your parents;
2) The age you enter puberty (when you start to develop sexually);
3) the age you have your first period (if you’re a girl);
and
3) your general health.... Most young women
achieve their full height within 12 to 18 months after their first
period. Most young men tend to stop growing at the end of puberty when they begin to shave regularly."

Answer 4

You grow a little more after puberty sets in. I grew about 3 inches after puberty but certainly stopped before the age of 17.

Answer 5

Women will reach maximum height up to 18 months from their first period. Age is not the criteria.

Answer 6

it doesnt happen that you stop growing in ht the moment u cross 12 in the night of your 21st b'day. Depending upon genetics and use/abuse of ur body ur hormones make all the diff. sometime women can grow upto 25 also and at times only till 18. the variation is huge.

Answer 7

Females pretty much keep growing until bout 18 yrs. After your period starts, I think you grow slower.

Answer 8

no, no, no...you can get your period as young as 9 years old, and you don't stop growing at that age...Women can keep growing well into their teens. It really depends on the person. I was done growing at 14, but my sister gained 2 inches at 19...it just depends!

Answer 9

Continue growing untill you attain the age of 21

Answer 10

after u start having a period , ur height will increase by 2-3 inches not more than that

Answer 11

Final adult height may be attained anywhere from the early teens to early 20s, though it is most commonly reached during the mid teens for females and late teens for males.
