Can you still grow taller at 14 yrs. old and at what age do you stop growing?

leighton asked:


So I’m just curious, do you still grow when you’re 14, cause I got my period when I was just about to turn 12 (a few weeks before my actual birthday) and a lot of people say that after you get your period, either you’re height increase slows down or you stop growing.

But there are also others who say that you don’t stop growing taller until you reach 18-20 yrs. old. And I’m not quite sure which of the two is true.

During the time between this year and the year I got my period,
I went from 5’4″/5’5″ to 5’6″ and currently I stand at 5’7″. So, basically I have grown taller, but my question is can I still grow at 14 because it’s already been 2 yrs. since I got my period.
Also, at what age does one really stop growing?

And if you’re wondering, my parents aren’t really that tall. My dad’s 5’9″/5’10″ (i think) & my mom’s 5’2″. I don’t want to be a model or anything, I’m just curious. =)

So if anyone can be of any help, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks! =)

    Probably at 18 but if you have huge feet you might grow really tall still

    You can still grow probably until you’re 16 or 17.
    And I got my period on my 13th birthday. I’m 14 now and I’ve been growing like a weed ever since.
    So you probably still have a ways to go before you stop growing.

    yes ofourse you can still grow until the age of 18, my height was just fine when i was just 12-13 but during the period of 13-15 my height get good now i m 16 years old & my height is 5’8.
    5’8 is a fine fine but i think its the best height in the age of 16,
    so you are 14 & 5’7 then its veryyy nice you kud be 5’11 when u will be 16 in my age lol, u will get more taller in my age lol.
    so dont worry your height is now veryyyyy very fine & nice.
