What age does a teenage girl stop growing>?

It varies by girl. Though, there are some statistics.


Most girls stop growing (height wise) by age 14.


Girls usually stop growing (height wise) 1 year after they get their first menstrual period.





If most people in her family are petite and she's 16, she is done growing.What age does a teenage girl stop growing%26gt;?
2 or 3 years after her first period. Or 3 and a half after her growth spurt.





Since genetics play a very large role in height factors, probably she may stop growing around this height or 5'2''. A good way to know when she stopped was when she suddenly slowed down.


My brother nearly all girls and boys, they have their growth spurt for a year, grown normally for half a year, and then they dramatically slow down. My brother used to grow nearly 2 inches a year... he had his growth spurt, 3 inches, and the he grew normal for half year, another inch. Then after that he only grew like 1/3 of an inch after that per year for 2 years, and now his full height is 5'10''. I'd say full height for girls is 15 or 16.
Depends. Many stop growing by the age of 16 or so. But some girls will grow into their early 20s. It varies greatly. It is highly likely that she will be within an inch or so of her mother's height, but you can never tell. At this point, I'd be surprised if your daughter grew taller than 5 ft 3 inches, and that might even be a long shot.
When she did begin her periods, about a year after she will not grow much anymore. After around 17 or 18 years old she will only grow a few centimeters.





Sorry for my bad English.
its def. not 2 years after first period. I know ppl who strted at 8 or 9 and they stop growing at 10 or 11? I think it is 4 or 5 years or something...
18 years old for sure=)
16-18
i would say 15 - 19 ish
