Many parents think that when a girl has menstruation, she has only begun to enter puberty and has begun to grow violently, but this is not the case! This is the middle and late stage of puberty, and there is not much room for growth.
When does the girl go to puberty and start to grow violently, when does she menstruate, when does she stop growing?
If you have a daughter at home, these 3 time points must be remembered, which is related to the child's lifelong height.
❶ When does a girl grow a big man?
Girls develop puberty much earlier than many parents think. Generally, it starts at about 9 and a half years old, that is, when the child is in the third or fourth grade of primary school, he begins to grow violently, not the beginning of junior high school as many parents think.
The sequence of puberty in girls begins is from top to bottom, starting with the chest, and finally menstruation. Signs of puberty in girls begin to be tender and induration in the breasts, and discomfort occurs when the breasts are slightly rubbed against the clothes.
If there is a requirement for the height of the child, parents can measure the bone age of the child when the girl is 8 or 9 years old to see the current development. Generally, when a girl enters puberty (9 and a half years old according to her bone age), her height is above 135, and the probability of adulthood can reach 160.
❷ When do girls get their periods?
Menarche in girls is generally about 12 and a half years old, and if menstruation occurs at this time, the growth space is about 4-7.
If parents find out that their child's height is not ideal at this time, and they want to intervene in their child, they can only say that they are trying their best to grow a little longer.
❸ When do girls stop growing?
In general, when the bone age of a girl is about 14 years old, she is already in the late stage of puberty and is about to stop growing. When the epiphyseal line is completely closed, the height of this life will be over, and at this time, it will be too late to say that you want to grow one.
For example, in our outpatient clinic, we often meet many 13 or 14-year-old girls, and their parents bring them to see their height, and most of them find that they have not grown for a few months, and some have not grown for half a year or a year, so they come to see it, and the intervention is too late.
