I have a question about puberty. I got my first period when I was 10. Now, I'm 18, does that mean, I will no longer become taller or become more of a woman because I went through my puberty when I was 10 ???
My height is 5/5 ........
I was just worried about what if I look like this 15 year old girl in my 20's. That's going to be scarey.

every woman is different but just because you go through puberty early doesn't mean you stop growing early. females keep growing until they reach the age of 18 as far as height but your bust and your shape still continue to form until your 21.
your face will also age too.
But it has its benefits looking 15 in your 20s means when your in your 30s you'll look Like you 20!!! if you take care of yourself

Women are typically as tall as they are going to be at 18 and that has nothing to do with when your period started. Your height was determined in your DNA at conception. But, 5'5" isnt so bad...the average for women is 5'6".

You will most likely grow some more, but not a lot. The key here is to learn and accept you body! You have to be comforatable in your own skin, so why not be thankful that you are healthy....that's what is important!

No.It' s a problem of height. I am 10 now,and my height is150.8. My doctor said that I'm a bit too tall at my age,he said it will affect my daily life and when I'm an adult, I will be only 158 cm tall! Father suggests me to jump more while my mum's friend suggests me to sleep more(Mum's friend is a doctor).I think you should follow their advice too.

nah you will grow still. your height and size may not change but your face will mature still. And if you look 15 in your twenties, you will be envied by all women!
