Question:
Greetings sir,
I want to ask you how much you think I can grow in height. I’m currently 15 and 5’10. My growth spurt started in the summer of 2022 and ended about 12 months ago. I went from 5’3 to 5’9 in July, then grew an inch in January, and haven’t grown since. I took the Tanner test and am somewhere between 4.1-4.3, which makes sense. What height do you think I will reach by the end of stage 4?
Answer:
Boys typically grow an additional 1-3 inches during stage 4. Growth in height doesn’t stop until you reach stage 5. It isn’t unusual for growth in height to pause as internal changes in your body catch up with your new size.
