I'm confused on how tall I will be.

Q.

I am at the age of 13 years old 174cm tall. I'm confused on how tall I will be when I am an adult.

I have researched height predictors and I have received height of close to 190cm or 185cm tall. Is this possible for somebody my age and height?

And also what is the average height for my age?

A.

Hello and thanks for writing in. You have asked an interesting question about height.

Many young people want to know how tall they will be when they get older. However, it's a hard question to answer because how tall you will be depends on things like how tall your parents are, what your body shape is like, and other physical things that you have no control over.

Growing to a height of 185–190 cm is possible. At 13, you're likely to still have some more growing to do. If you are feeling worried about your height you could make an appointment with your doctor to talk about it.

Hope this has helped. Take care.
