A member asked:

What is ideal height and weight for 18 years old?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

General rule: Your family doc has charts for this, but a general rule for a female is: 100 pounds for 5 feet, and 5 pound for every inch above 5 feet. So, for example, if you are 5'3", you should be about 115 pounds...More or less depending on your body-type..
