puberty milestone

12: first pubic hair ever (though I’ve heard it’s driven by adrenarche?)
14: start of the growth spurt
14 and 3 months: first armpit hair ever
14+10m->15 and 2m: major sudden voice change
15: first upper lip hair
16,4m: upper lip hair is developed, but still very soft. Very few chin hair (still vellus)
Armpit hair developed but def not like and adult.

UNPOPULAR OPINION: for those who post their diet and what they eat in a week+ how much they exercise or sleep, In my opinion it’s just useless to mention it. Like honestly height is mostly genetics and as long as you have decent sleep (8h+) and an healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet, your body will get you to your height potential, I’m really convinced that eating 174773822g of proteins a week exercising 40 times a week (ofc it’s an exaggeration) won’t really get you far from where you are supposed to get.

I’m going to give you informations such as growth rate, and parents height.

His dad’s height: 178cm (5'10.1)
His mom’s height: 164cm (5'4.6)

his height troughout years

10: 137cm (4'6)
11: 142cm (4'8)
12: 147cm (4'10)
13: 153cm (5ft+ 1/4")
13.5: 157cm (5'1.8")
14: 162cm (5'3.8")
14.5: 167cm (5'5+ 3/4)
15: 170.5cm (5'7.1")
16: ???
17: ????
18: ????
19: ????

I wanted to ask if you relate with these averages as this is the CDC growth chart
for boys (from USA) I’m going to give my perception at the end

Birth: 50cm (19.7in)
1y old: 75cm (29.5in)
2y old: 86.9cm (34.2in)
3y old 95.3cm (3'1.5")
4y old: 102.6cm (3’4.4")
5y old: 109.2cm (3'7")
6y old: 115.6cm (3'9.5")
7y old: 121.9cm (4ft)
8y old: 128cm (4'2.4")
9y old: 133.3cm (4'4.5")
10y old: 138.4cm (4'6.5")
11y old: 143.3cm (4'8.4")
12y old: 149.1cm (4'10.7")
13y old: 156.2cm (5'1.5")
14y old: 163.8cm (5'4.5")
15y old: 170.2cm (5'7")
16y old: 173.5cm (5'8.3")
17y old: 175.3cm (5'9")
18y old: 176cm (5'9.3")
19y old: 176.5cm (5'9.5")

(I’m not from the US but the average is really close, slightly lower than the average in my country during early childhood, slightly higher during adolescence ad identical for the adult average height)

As a boy who had always been about the statistical average, I do relate with these numbers as I never felt short or tall in most situations, always felt average, there were the tall kids and the short kids. I DONT completely relate with the averages from age 11 onwards. I feel like the average is slightly higher as in my perception boys start their spurt much earlier now. This is my “perception” of the average at each age.

11: 144-145cm
12: 151cm
13: 158-159cm
14: 166cm
15: 172-173cm
16: 175-176cm
17: 176cm
18: 177cm
19: 177cm

give me your thoughts. (Also make sure your country’s reported average match or are close to those I wrote in the post)

So I wanted to be given an opinion about my left growth potential and possibly about my twin sister and my cousin. (Me and my cousin are males)

our parents:
Dad: 194.5cm tall (6'4.6")
Mom: 158cm tall (5'2 1/4)
we were born on May 22nd 2010, my cousin was born on June 11th 2011

my cousin’s (mom side) parents
his father: 178cm (5’10.1")
his mother: 164cm (5'4.6")

If there’s any question please ask it.

I wanted to ask this question, because I am almost always like 2cm shorter at night, except when I’m not up all day and be laying down most of the day. I usually wake up and then after 1 hour up I have shrunk like 0.5-1cm, then after 2 hours 1-1.5cm, and then like half of the day I’m 1.5cm shorter than how tall I am in the morning, by 7Pm I usually have reached my limit of 2cm. I l got measured 1 inch (2.5cm) shorter at night sometimes (very rarely) but I don’t know if that might be a measurement issue/ error.

I would like to know how tall do you think I’ll be.
I’ll give you my parents' height, my growth history, puberty signs, and feet growth. If you are interested please read every detail.

Parents height:
• mom: 158,2cm (5'2¼)
• dad: 194,5cm (6'4½)

I was born as a twin and 3 weeks+1 day earlier than average so I was shortish my first months of life.

10 years: 137cm (4'6) ~46th percentile
11 years: 141cm (4'7.5) ~39th percentile
12 years: 145cm (4'9) ~30th percentile 41kg
13 years: 149.5cm (4'11) ~19th percentile 43kg
14 years: 155cm (5'1) ~13th percentile 48.5kg

15 years old 10 months: 172cm
16 years old 2 months (now) 174.7cm 59kg (5'8.77")
~ I have grown 2.2cm since exactly 3 months ago, and 4.3cm since 6 months ago.

my feet size
9: 36 EU (US 4.5)
12: 39EU (US 6.5)
14: 41EU (US 8)
15: 42.5EU (US 9.5)
16: 43.5 EU (US 10.5)

puberty signs:
12: first pubic hair.
14 and 3 months: first armpit hair
15: voice big sudden change, first upper lip hair
and PHV happened there.
16: a bit more of facial hair and more armpit hair, my voice dropped a bit too.

Do you think hitting my genetic target (which is between 5'11 and 6'1) is possible?
