How do i know when my growth spurt will happen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Boy or girl?: Girls have their growth spurt early in puberty, when they start having breast development. Boys have their growth spurt late in puberty, when their testicles are about 4 cm in diameter (longest meaurement) or 15 ml in volume.
