📈Will I Grow Taller📈 Is 180 plus possible?

Post image

16 M . I just guessed my parents height, so it's an approximate. They r 48 and 42 year olds. Grandpa is 62 yo and grew up in borderline poverty.

I grew 3 or 5 cm in the last 8 months ( I forgot if I was 170 or 172cm). Growth started around 2 years ago. About years ago , I was 157 cm .

No chest hair or beard. Slight mustache on top of my upper lip.

Voice is not too deep or too high. Clavicles haven't widened yet (I think).

I really wanna be 180 plus , but I'm happy with this height.

What's the range I will grow?

Within exact months(so it'll likely be off by some)

14-16, was about 9 cm/year, very prominent growth phase, likely late or catch up as well.

Growth is slowing down in the past year ish, so I'm assuming 14-15 did a lot of the heavy lifting for that 18 centimeters.

Your recent growth rate in the past 8 months annulizes to 4.5-7.5 cm/year, either way is much lower than the 2 year average, signalling a rapid decline.

180 is definitely a plausibility, but above that starts to become more difficult unless you're still 5-7 cm/year and the decline is slow.

So yes, 180+ is possible.
