I am almost 16 years old, and I am currently 5”9. I am currently in a huge growths spurt, and was only 5”3 A year and a half ago (start of freshmen year). My dad had a similar growth spurt, when my dad was 16 he was only 5”4, but then grew 6 inches in 9 months, and another 3 that summer. He grew a few more inches after and ended at 6”0.5. My mother is 5”4 (average). My dads dad was 6”0 (he dead) my moms dad is 5”10. My dads brother (uncle) is 6”2. My moms brothers are shorter (5”6-5”10).
I know I am currently still growing very quickly, and I am wondering how much longer it will last. I know it is common to grow quickly then slow down and grow about 2 more inches. If I am 5”9 and still growing fast is it safe to say I will be 5”11+? I currently have OSD (osgood schlattefs disease). How tall do you think I will be, I am hoping 6”1 but what do you think?
I am obviously a “late bloomer”. I want to know your guesses. Thanks....
