A member asked:
Can you tell me exactly when is the final growth spurt in a boy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Growth: Boys usually have their final growth spurt or peak growth velocity between 15-18 of age. Girls have the peak growth velocity much sooner and usually stop growing two years after their period has started. This is why men will always be taller. I my opinion one of the only things that we will be better than females.
