Information on Human Body Growth By Misty Amber Brighton, eHow Contributor A person's height can cause him or her a lot of anxiety, especially during adolescence. Although there are products that claim to increase a person's height, it is likely your height is mostly predetermined. Knowing the facts about human growth can help eliminate anxiety about your growth patterns. Growth spurt in boys Boys normally reach a growth spurt later than girls. This does not mean they are going through puberty later. Boys' growth spurt comes at the end of puberty, while girls have a growth spurt at the beginning of puberty. Cartilage Growth in height happens in the human body at the end of a person's leg bones. Growth will cease when cartilage cells at the ends of these bones stop being produced. Menstruation Girls normally stop growing two years after first starting their menstrual cycles, according to Teengrowth.com. She will normally grow around 2 inches during this time. Ancestors People today are generally taller than they were 100 years ago. The furniture of this time period is also smaller, reflecting the height of our ancestors. Heredity Heredity plays a major role in how tall a person will be. Other factors include illness, nutrition and proper sleep. Men vs. women Adult males are on average 13 centimeters taller than average females, according to the BBC. |

Poster, I'm afraid you've gone past your rapid growing stage (age 9-13) in females. You could still grow taller but not at the rate you did back then (no more than an inch or so). |
