Height growth after menarche

Every parent hopes that their children can look taller. Tall children look more elegant and are better at matching clothes. And if you have these advantages, when you look for a job in the future, you can also leave a good impression of your elegant temperament on the recruiter. So, what is the regularity of height growth after the first menstruation?

1. What are the differences between the growth and development patterns of girls and boys?

For girls and boys of the same age, before puberty, most girls are taller than boys, and some are even much taller. When they reach puberty, boys grow rapidly in height, and can grow more than ten to twenty centimeters a year, while girls grow at a slower rate. After menstruation, girls' height is basically fixed and is unlikely to change much. When they reach puberty, most boys will be taller than girls. Therefore, parents with children do not need to worry too much because their children look short. As long as the nutrition is adequate, boys will grow quickly when they reach puberty.

2. What is the relationship between a girl’s height and the time of her first menstruation?

In the period before the first menstruation, girls grow faster in height, but after the menstruation, the growth rate slows down. Simply put, the sooner the first menstrual period comes, the shorter the girl will be, and vice versa. So, if you want to know how old a girl looks, you have to look at her height before her period. For most girls, their height hardly changes after their menarche.

3. By doing these things, girls can still have a chance of growing taller after their first menstruation!

Some girls have not grown to the appropriate height-to-width ratio, their menarche comes, and their growth rate is very slow. What should they do? In fact, there are ways to save it. The slow growth rate after menstruation does not mean that you can't grow anymore. By doing these aspects, girls who have their menarche early can still have a chance at growing taller!

1. Ensure good sleep quality after 9 pm and 2 am

Human growth and development is controlled by growth hormone. Generally speaking, the more growth hormone is metabolized, the faster it appears. The time range from 9 pm to 2 am is when children's growth hormone secretion is most abundant, so as long as you ensure the sleep time and quality during this time, there is still hope of growing taller.

2. Eat more foods rich in calcium

Calcium is a key component of muscle and bone, that is, calcium is the raw material that promotes the growth and development of body size. Only when you take in more calcium can your bones become longer and wider. When your bones are longer, you will naturally be taller.

In addition, strengthening exercise can also promote the growth of children's height. Exercise can stimulate the activity of osteoclasts and make the bones longer. Finally, I wish every child can grow to their ideal height!
