What age did you stop growing?

Mr. CooL ICE · 17-10-2011 03:08AM

I hit 5ft 11" at 13 and only grew 1/2" since then. I'm pissed off because I was always expected to end up around 6ft 6" with the rate I was growing, but stopped so suddenly.

Before telling this to people, they are shocked to learn I played 2nd row for my town's U15 rugby team

I stopped growing vertically when I hit 5ft11 at 18.It has since shifted to growing sideways,which has been rather fun.

I stopped growing upwards when i was 19 at 5-8. Unfortunately my nose kept growing and shows no sign of stopping !!!

I was 5' 8" at 15. Now at 19 I'm 5' 9".

I heard you'll stop growing at 21. I'll just sit around and see what happens.

CiaranMT · 19-10-2011 01:04AM

21 now, 5"10' or so, been steadily getting taller all through the mid-to-late teen years. Was a late-ish developer myself so wouldn't be surprised if I gained another cm or two.

Well me personally when I finished in secondary school i was about your age and i was 5 7 and i am now 5 11 at 25 and my younger brother was about 5 8 and hes is now 6 1, So id say there is a chance youll get bigger but saying that, That was our growth spurt we never had when we were in school:D

theavenger · 15-12-2011 07:11PM

5 11" at age 13. Played senior gaa at the same age. Had to bring my birth cert to football matches as a child. I'm still the same height :-(

Today I turned 5 11 at the ripe age of 18 years and 21 days. (November 25th)

Amy33 · 19-12-2011 04:15PM

I stopped growing at 11, I'm 5'4".

finipops · 19-12-2011 09:52PM

Around 21 for me i think. I'm 5ft 9in but i say i would have been a big bigger if i hadn't smoked for a while during my teen years.(Glad i'm off them now)

canonball5 · 19-12-2011 10:05PM

I was around 21-22 when i stopped. I'm 6'6

Pepe LeFrits · 19-12-2011 11:13PM

20ish

dancoxkilc · 24-12-2011 12:29AM

Early 20's but everyone's different. I don't see why its a major concern you are the height you are. Is penis size related to height i wonder. Is that what you are getting at here? (Im not trying to be a a-hole im seriously just wondering)

God damn you

But dayuumm
How quick did he grow? I know someone who grew like 5 inches in a few months and had to get some surgery and cant play football or anything now

amacachi · 25-12-2011 12:07AM

In second year when I was 14 and even third year I was one of the shortest in the year. Eventually I got to 6 foot 2. Was 15-16 before the first growth spurt and didn't hit 6 foot til I was 20. Always had the big build though and I'd say I stopped growing just about when I turned 21.

SpannerMonkey · 25-12-2011 07:00PM

i was 15 when i stopped growing im 6ft 5 , i was 6,2 ft at 11 taller than all my teachers leaving primary school

and remember that old saying " act your age not your shoe size "
well when i was 10 my shoe size was 12

snd currently a Uk15 shoe ,

although to be honest id rather be 6ft 3 with a size 11 foot , its bloody impossible find clothes and shoes i have no selection i go in to shop do you have size 15 shoes , first they laugh and then when they realise im serious say "eh no" :rolleyes:

as for clothes i cant find tops / shirts that are long enough its a PITA

I've been the shortest in the year, every year, all my life. I'm 4' 11.5 and I stopped growing at about 14.

I'm 25 and I'm still hoping for a growth spurt.:)

Another half an inch and you'll be an actual person. :pac:

ToxicPaddy · 30-12-2011 02:13PM

Went from around 5'3 to 6' in less than 18 months when I was 15/16.. then grew another 2 inches over the next 5 years and then stopped..
