A member asked:
Do you stop growing after you get your period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eventually: The average girl will grow 2.5 inches or 5 cm after they have their first period. Some more and some a bit less. The begining of menses signals the hormonal changes that will cause the growth centers to close and eventually end linear growth.
