Height growth thread

[Deleted member 52548]

I see all over Reddit these cope stories of people growing after 18. It says the average age a man stops growing is 16 which I find kind of hard to believe. Is it actually true that men stop growing at 16? I was cursed with short parents (5’8 dad and 5’4 mom) but am 5’10 at 15. I’m turning 16 soon and am hoping that I’m not finished. I don’t remember my exact height a year ago but I’ve grown half an inch or an inch. I grew about an inch or inch and a half the year before that. I was not an early bloomer and my doctor said I started puberty at an average age. I started puberty a little over 3 years ago. I’m not coping and wanting people to say I’ll hit a huge growth spurt and become 6’4. I’m just hoping for an inch or 2. Three would be nice too.

It’s different for everyone. Some stop growing at like 15 others I know gained height until like 19. No one can accurately tell you except if it’s a good guess but purely based off your genetics and age you can’t expect to become 6’4. Idk tho maybe you’ll get really lucky time will tell

Ask people in your family when they started to stop growing
