A member asked:

My daughter got her menses at 13. will she still continue to grow in height?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Expect 2+inches: The average female will put on another 2 to 2 1/2 inches after first menses. The hormonal output that sustains menses will signal the growth centers of the long bone to finish & as those centers form solid bone the linear growth stops.
