A member asked:

What is considered to be the optimal weight of a 15-17 year old girl at the height of 5'7?

Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Depends on things: Like how much muscle she has. Roughly 122 pounds low end, 149 high end & 135 spot on. However, if she is particularly muscular may be more. Take care.
