Question:
What is a growth pause? How long does it last, and what happens after it?
Answer:
Technically, there is no pause in development. It is just that the body cannot grow everything at once, so different systems develop for a while, and then other systems develop. Thus, while your internal organs are growing to catch up with your bigger size, your bones may not grow fast. However, you only notice the external changes, so your bone slowing down looks like you are pausing. There is no set length of time the bones pause in their growth.
