When do girls stop growing taller?

In daily life, girls may care less about their height than boys. But in today's world where looks matter. Girls' height is also becoming more important. It also affects work and love. “Concentration is the essence” is no longer a powerful counterattack. So at what age do girls stop growing taller? Can it be changed through acquired efforts?

Studies have found that due to different individual growth and development, bone age is directly proportional to actual age. They are basically consistent, but there will also be deviations. A deviation between bone age and actual age within 1 year is normal. Therefore, it can be said that under normal circumstances, the age at which girls stop growing taller is between 15 and 17 years old. Generally speaking, when a girl's bone age is over 15 years old, more than 98% of her height growth has been completed. By the age of 16, the bones stop growing and are completely closed.

Best ways to grow taller for girls

Throughout a person's life, height growth follows a regular pattern. Generally speaking, our average height when we are just born is about 50 cm. During the first year of life, our height growth rate is the fastest in our lifetime, increasing by an average of 25 cm per year. In the second year, the growth rate slows down slightly, averaging about 10 cm per year. Starting from around the age of 2, the rate of height growth gradually slows down, with an average increase of about 7-8 cm per year. After the age of 6, the average increase is 5 cm per year. Girls begin to enter a growth spurt at the age of 10, growing an average of 6 cm per year. This growth spurt will last about 3-4 years, and then the growth rate will gradually slow down again, growing an average of 1-2 cm per year. At around 18 or 19 years old, height will stop increasing. A boy's growth spurt begins at age 13, with an average annual increase of 8-9 cm. The spurt lasts for 2-3 years, and by around age 20, he has basically reached his adult height.
