♥My growth spurt?

Question

Will I still grow? I'm 14 years old and 5 ft. I got my period two years ago and I heard females dont usually grow after they got thier period...is it true?

Answer 1

no its not. I got my period at 11 and didn't stop growing till 16 or so. but it depends on what happens to you. And also what the other women in your family look like.

Answer 2

While I doubt you're going to be 5-foot-10, you'll probably grow a little bit more. I didn't stop growing till I was in college, at least 4 years after I got my first period.

One good indicator is when your parents stopped growing, and how tall they are. All other things being equal, men usually stop growing after women do, so keep that in mind.

I'm 5'8", and I'm jealous of petite women - you get the cutest clothes! And you can always wear heals. If I wear high heals then I end up taller than most of my guy friends and my husband!

Answer 3

No, that is absolutly false. Take a look around you, have you ever seen a woman taller than 5'? If girls stopped growing when they got their fist period the world would be full of women that were 4 feet tall

Answer 4

Have you been laid yet? After me and my GF did it for the first time she started to grow. If you don't got a BF consider masturbating this and sex helps you mature. Get a dildo and some lube and have at it. Try the follow site. E-mail if you'd need a friend or some help. I'm 15 and I got a 11 inch penis so feel free to contact me baby.

P.S. Masturbation is a safe and fun alternative to sex.

Answer 6

I know a 5 year old who started, trust me it is not true, I don't think she will be 3ft 2in all her life.

Answer 7

Adjusting to a New Body
We become more aware of looks right around the time our bodies begin changing. This can make physical changes difficult to deal with emotionally.

Adjusting to a changing body is about more than just looks, though. Lots of teens base their self-image on how their bodies feel and perform. Until a year ago, Wes, 15, was a lean, fast sprinter who could always be relied on to win the race for his track team. Wes has ADHD, and some days it seemed like running was the only thing he could do well. So when he started developing a stockier, more muscular physique and his sprint times got longer, Wes' confidence took a serious bruising.

Changes in our bodies' appearance, performance - even such minor details as the way they smell - are all perfectly normal parts of growing up. So what can you do to help yourself adjust physically and emotionally? Here are some ideas.

Beware - don't compare! It's natural to look at our friends for comparison. But it's not a good idea. Comparing ourselves with others is problematic because everyone develops differently and at different times. If you go through a growth spurt early, you may feel too tall. Yet your friend may be thinking that he or she is too small. It's usually hardest for the people who develop first or last.

It's also a bad idea to compare ourselves to celebrities and models. In reality, most people don't look like the limited body types shown in the media. (Actually, the models often don't look like that either: Many of those "perfect" bodies got that way through photo editing, not nature.)

Forget magazine ads - check out family snapshots instead. Ads sell fantasy, not reality. It's easy to dream about becoming an Abercrombie model, but allowing hopes and expectations to get out of hand can only let a person down.

People vary in terms of size, height, and shape, and how the body develops is in large part due to genetics. Your body is programmed to do pretty much what your parents' (or grandparents') bodies did. Nikki, for example, realized that, although she shared her mom's love of dance, she'd inherited her physique from her father's side of the family.

Before you look at your folks and freak out, consider that they're no longer teens. People's bodies change as they grow older. Ask to see pictures of your parents, aunts, and uncles when they were your age. This will give you a chance to talk to them about their own development.

Another thing to remember is that people had different lifestyles when your parents were growing up. If you're more involved in sports than your parents were, you're going to look fitter and more muscular. And, of course, the reverse is true for people who are less active than their parents were.

Treat your body well. Making educated choices about food and exercise is part of developing a mind and life of your own. Healthy eating and exercise can also give you some control over how your body turns out. Plus, exercise is a mood booster. If your changing body has you feeling sad or confused, it may help to go for a walk, play with your dog, or throw a Frisbee with your friends.

About three quarters of all teens quit sports around the time their bodies develop. Often it's because the changes in their bodies influence which sports they compete in. Although you can still do any activity if you really are interested in it, some people prefer to switch to another activity. Wes put his strength and running skills to use playing football. And Nikki was able to combine her great figure with her love of dance when she discovered belly dancing in college.

Sometimes people quit playing organized sports in high school because schoolwork becomes more demanding, or because they have a more active social life that fills their time. Now is definitely not the time to stop exercising completely, though. Use this time of change to explore how your body feels doing different activities. Taking yoga, martial arts classes, or other activities that involve focusing on how the body stretches and moves can help you become familiar with your body.

Befriend your bod. Feeling like you don't know your body any more? Just like a friendship that grows and evolves, keeping in touch with our bodies takes time. Like friends, our bodies can let us down at times. But with a little work and understanding, it's possible to bounce back.

Just like we know our friends' secrets, we know stuff about our own bodies that other people don't. For example, you may think your stomach sticks out because you spend hours focusing on it in the mirror. But the truth is, other people won't notice it like you do.

Walk tall - even if you're not! What people do notice is how you project your feelings about yourself. If you think you're too tall, it will be more noticeable if you slump over and try to look smaller. If you're self-conscious about your pimples, hiding behind your hair may cover the zit on your cheek - but you'll look awkward and uncomfortable.

As your body changes, it can help to work on good posture and walk with a sense of confidence. After doing this for a while, you'll probably become more confident too.

There's not much you can do about your height or development, but you can focus on the things that you really like about yourself. Maybe it's your curly hair or the dimple you get when you smile. Maybe it's that you are a really thoughtful person or you are good at making people laugh. Ultimately, when you think of the people in your life that you care about the most, what they look like probably has very little to do with how much you like them.
