| Question : |
My niece is 11 yr old and 4feet and 7 inches tall, She had her first period last month. I want to know is it possible for her to gain height now? thank you |
Answer |
Usually menses occurs in girls during stage 3 or 4 of puberty whereas the height increase occurs in stage 1 and 2, i.e the height grows earlier and menses comes later when the breast development has already advanced. Girls' heights will rarely increase more than 2" after menarche has occurred. |
