Question 1

how much should a 10 year old 4ft. 11in. weigh? (female)

Accepted Answer

Average weight: The 50% percentile for a girl that is 4 ft 11 inches is between 72.8 pounds and 81.4 pounds. But remember this is the 50% therefore 50% of girls your age are above this range and 50% of girl your age are below this range. So I wouldn't be overly concerned with the number. I would just stay active and eat healthy.

Question 2

how much should a 10 year old weigh--male, active but chubby?

Accepted Answer

?height: Ten year old's can range from ~ 49-59 inches tall. Their expected weights range from 56-110 lb with the shorter being lightest & taller being heavier. So the tallest 10yo at just under 5 ft  should be about 110 lb. Specific weight for height numbers are available through your pcp.

Question 3

Question 5

how can a 10yr.old lose weigh?

Accepted Answer

Several Things: More exercise, portion control and better eating habits referring to dietary choices.

Question 6

can a 10 yr. old weighing 104 pounds burn calories sleeping? if so, how many?

Accepted Answer

Burn rate: Fitness references list the burn rate as .42 cal/lb/hr.For a 104 lb person this calculates to 43.68 cal/hr. This is really an approximation.The body composition will influence the actual rate . Someone at 104 lb that has 20 lb of body fat, which is relatively low in calorie consumption, burns slower than someone with 10 lb of body fat.

Question 7

average height for a 10 year old boy?

Accepted Answer

54 inches: 54 in (50th percentile) normal range (5th to 95th percentile) is 51 - 59 inches.

Question 8

can a 10 year old boy take 1mg melatonin ?

Accepted Answer

Yes but why?: Melatonin can help with sleep for some and is useful for jet lag.  A 10 year old should be able to sleep without artificial aids and it is a good idea not to get him into the habit of using such assistance.

Question 9

if a 10 year old boy hits puberty, how soon can he expect certain things?

Accepted Answer

See below: Testicular enlargement is the first thing noticeable followed by curly pubic hair and enlargement of penis, growth spurt (age 14), axillary hair, facial hair, and deepening of voice.

Question 10

can a 10 year old boy donates his sperm?

Accepted Answer

: I know of no place in my country where a minor would be allowed to do this, even if he had reached the stage of puberty where it is possible. I know of no municipality where it would be permitted. Check in your country, but don't be surprised if you are investigated for child sexual abuse.
