Hello, I m a 15 year old male, I m 130 pounds. I have a height of 5 6 and my mom and dad are 5 0 and 5 10 , respectively. Will I grow to be just as tall as my dad? I haven t been growing much lately, and I m worried that I m going to end up being short.
Hi, Thanks and welcome to Chat Doctor. The expected height is calculated from mid parental height I.e., the average height of both parents plus 6.5 CMS. In that case you are expected to reach a maximum height of 5 ft 8 in. Hope this answer serves your purpose. Please feel free to ask further queries if any. Chat Doctor. V. Subrahmanyam.
