Signs that women have stopped growing taller

Clinically, once a girl has menstruated, it indicates that pubertal development is basically complete and height growth will slow down. Parents who observe no significant change in their child’s height growth in the last six months suggest that height growth has stopped. The second peak of height growth for girls is puberty, which is a period of rapid height growth, often 20-23 cm for girls. As an attentive parent, it is important to carefully observe the rate of height growth and the changes in your child’s body. If the height is significantly shorter than that of children of the same age, and if menstruation has already started, it is important to improve the bone age monitoring in time to assess the child’s potential for height growth.
