A member asked:
I'm 16 and still didn't have a growth spurt?why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Other development: The bigger question is whether other development is on track or whether puberty has not started for you yet. If you have developed breasts, pubic & axillary hair and started your menses, then this is an isolated problem of growth/stature. If none of the other things have happened yet, there is concern about primary reproductive delay/delayed puberty, and this is a different issue. See doc soon!
