Tanner stage & Growth potential

[Ychassa]

Tanner stages are the stages of puberty that you go through, and determines your growth.
the age range is based on the average persons puberty, you can be in a different tanner stage, depending on when you entered puberty.


Tanner 1 (Pre-puberty, ~before 10 years old) ~25-30 cm left

Tanner 2 (Early puberty, ~11 years old) ~20-25 cm left

Tanner 3 (Mid-puberty, ~13 years old) ~10-20 cm left

Tanner 4 (Late puberty, ~14 years old) ~2-10 cm left

Tanner 5 (Full maturity, ~15+ years old) ~0-2 cm left (mostly done)

plates begin to fuse at tanner stage 4 & should be completely fused at tanner stage 5



more signs of each tanner stage, provided by chat gpt:

Tanner 1 (Pre-puberty, before ~10-11 years old)​

• No pubic hair
• Testicles are small (<2.5 cm in length)
• Penis is child-sized, no growth
• No facial or body hair
• No significant voice changes
• Growth rate is slow (~5 cm/year)

Tanner 2 (Early puberty, ~11-13 years old)​

• First noticeable change: Testicles enlarge (>2.5 cm)
• Scrotum thins, reddens, and hangs lower
• Very light pubic hair appears at the base of the penis (soft, sparse, straight)
• Penis may slightly increase in length but not much
• Sweat and body odor increase
• Some boys experience mild gynecomastia (chest puffiness)
• Growth rate increases (~6-8 cm/year) but still moderate

Tanner 3 (Mid-puberty, ~13-15 years old)​

• Peak height growth (~8-12 cm/year)
• Testicles continue enlarging (3.5-4.5 cm)
• Penis grows noticeably in length and some in width
• Pubic hair becomes darker, curlier, and spreads but doesn’t reach thighs
• First signs of facial hair (upper lip, corners of mouth, light fuzz)
• Voice starts cracking and deepening
• Acne may begin due to increased oil production
• Muscles start developing, shoulders broaden slightly
• Body odor becomes stronger
• More noticeable nocturnal emissions ("wet dreams")

Tanner 4 (Late puberty, ~15-17 years old)​

• Growth starts slowing down (~5-7 cm/year)
• Testicles reach near-adult size (4.5-5 cm)
• Penis grows more in width & final length
• Pubic hair fully darkens & thickens, but doesn’t extend to thighs yet
• Voice deepens fully and stabilizes
• Facial hair becomes more noticeable (chin, jawline, sideburns start filling in)
• Body hair increases (legs, arms, armpits, chest starts developing hair in some boys)
• Muscle mass increases significantly, especially with exercise
• Final broadening of shoulders & chest
• Some experience a last mild case of gynecomastia, but it usually disappears

Tanner 5 (Full maturity, ~17+ years old)​

• Growth plates fuse → No more height growth
• Testicles, penis, and scrotum fully developed
• Pubic hair spreads to inner thighs and lower abdomen
• Facial hair thickens (full beard possible)
• Chest hair grows (if genetically predisposed)
• Muscle mass reaches full adult potential
• Body proportions are final (shoulder width, muscle definition)
• Acne may start to reduce as hormone levels stabilize
• Finalized deep adult voice

Different races are more hairy than others

Tanner 3 (Mid-puberty, ~13-15 years old)

what effects on facial aesthetics once finished

 

[unknownslayer--]

so basically men grow until 17 not 21

 

[stufftodo]

so basically men grow until 17 not 21

men can grow till 25. the tanner scale just doesn't accommodate for those outliers.

Im 18 and I’m still growing. I was 178 last I checked but now folks I knew who are 187-190 seem way shorter then they used to be. I was shocked when I saw my old friends from before. Raw milk really saved me

Thats why I didn't grow much after 14-15

If your estradiol based genes, estradiol levels, ER-alpha activity etc. are average the tanner stage is almost perfectly accurate

Raw milk saved you?

 

[copercel123]

I had full beard at 14 jfl.


And btw the chat gpt is saying tanner 5 is 17+ and in what you typed in the start of the thread it’s saying that tanner 5 is 15+ so which one is the true one

Raw milk, eating 3x more meat then I usually did. Did a facial that removed the deepest parts of my acne, removed all forms of refined sugar and seed oils

My further ascension plan is to remove all the high sugar fruits and only eat cucumber, tomatoes, pepper and berries, avocados for now. Basically slowly becoming strict carnivore. Sunbathe maxxing, minoxidil, neck training and praying to God

Removing the acne fully was a form of removing refined sugars and seed oils? My acne is super super fucked for years now and especially on my nose my skin is oily as fuck. I might start eating foods like lamb shoulder etc. Only thing is can't get raw milk so best I can do is organic whole milk non homogenised.

Do that then. But also get a facial
