B. Can I get my growth spurt next year or do I have to wait until I'm 16 or 17?

C. Can I grow 6 to 7 inches?

You can grow into your 20s. My mom grew 3 inches when she was in college. It happens over time and there is no set date you have to finish growing by. 6 to 7 inches is a lot and probably isnt realistic. You are probably looking at more to 2 to 4 inches.. if at all. Theres no guarantee you'll grow at all either.

Okay.. well, girls don't usually have growth "spurts", especially not like guys do. Every girl is different, we all grow at different rates. Sometimes gradually, sometimes in I guess you could say spurts. I grew probably bout an inch or two in about a year, but I think that was my largest "spurt". I hit 16 and I think I stopped growing. But again, it all depends. It's possible to grow a lot while you're still 14 and keep growing til you hit around yeah, 16-17. Look at your parents, you'd probablyy be a mix in between there. I'm taller than my mom. So yeah, anything's possible, but maybe not a whole 6-7 in.

Hi i am 14 too and as far as I know if you grow much more at all it will only be a few inches. It really just depends on your body and hormones to determine when your next spurt will be. I know how you feel because i wish i could be about 3 inches taller but i don't think its gonna happen to me but you may get lucky so if your short don't get discouraged cuz a lot of people are right there with you :)

If your only 14 theres still alot of time for you to grow. There are many people that are 16 and just hitting their growth. You will probably grow atleast 3 more inches before you stop growing.

Girls of 14 are pretty much finished growing. Some may grow a bite. Boys usually start growing around that time, & they can spurt up pretty fast & grow tioll they are 19-20. Take heart girls are usually much more mature then boys at 14. They are about 2 yrs ahead of boys. Strange twist isn't it.

To answer all your questions, everyone grows at different rates and times. My friend who is 16 is only 5 feet tall. Another friend of mine is 15 and is a lot taller than me. I'm 16 and I'm about 5 feet 4 inches.

Your height should be the least of your worries.

Hope I helped!

A. Depends on your type of body and maybe your parents.
B. I got a growth spurt at 12. I don't think you will wait. It usually comes a couple months before or after you get your period.
C. YES! I grew 6! I went from short kid, to tall kid, and now an average teen. And I am still growing after my growth spurt!
D. Of course! My mom got her's at 15!

~Don't worry, You have lots of time! You will most definitly grow! Just remember to take of your body, your health, your mind and you will grow up healthy and become a GREAT adult!

My height all came at once. I'm almost 17 now, and I haven't grown an inch since I was about 12...I've been 5'7" since then! It just depends on the person. You can keep growing for a while though.

girls usually stop growing at the age of 14.. the average height for a girl is around 5'4''. Guys are the ones that grow up till they are 17.

it is impossible to know when a persons growth spurt is going to happen, you will keep on growing untill around 18 years old
