A member asked:
I think my mothers height is 156cm and my fathers height is above 170cm.is it possible for me to be taller than 170cm or 173cm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The expected final height of males is the average of both parents plus 5 cm. In your case that is 326/2(163)+5 or 168 cm. Some will grow taller than this number, some will grow less. An x-ray of your wrist/hand can identify the growth centers in the bone that predict when you stop growing.
