well, i had my period when i was reaching 14. then i had a growth spurt of almost 3 inches in 1 year. however, most people say that girls stop growing 2 years after they have their period. if that is the case, does that mean i am almost done as i am 4 months to 16? is it possible to have another growth spurt again just before the 2 years end? i am only 5'2 still, and want to be taller.
if this helps. my mum had her period at 17 (very late, no idea why) and shot until she was about 19. she was very, very short when she was 17, and is now slightly more than 5'2. my dad is also very short, about 5'4 or so.

well, my my father's side are all very short. but my mum's 2 brothers are both relatively tall (both quite close to 6'). and my cousin is 6'4. does that give me a chance?

I have never heard that - about stopping growing 2 years after your period. I think that it depends on your parents and other relatives. I am taller than both of my parents. Look at your aunts and uncles as well as your parents. If they are all about the same height, you are probably going to be on the short side. Sorry.

Well probably across the youngster years you're going to have a couple of extra development sperts. Umm you will have to cross to the dr approximately your interval. Nobody is finished with that till they're historical and cross by way of menopause. You are having abnormal intervals and they are able to deliver you capsules to repair that. No you'll estimate how tall you're going to be every body grows at another speed. However, you'll consider of the way tall your father and mother are and which one you are taking after essentially the most and most probably you're going to then recognise. Hope this is helping.

Women grow until they are about 20. You still have time. (Height is based on genetics)
