Growth charts show that majority of guys grow just a little after the ages of 18. In rare cases, some people may hit puberty in their late teens and continue to grow into their early twenties. The reason most guys stop growing at this age is because their growth plates fuse shortly after puberty.

Even if you hit puberty late, you’re unlikely to grow significantly after the ages of 18 to 20 . Most boys reach their peak height around the age of 16. However, men still develop in other ways well into their twenties. Research has found that the brain doesn’t fully develop until the age of 25 and men usually achieve peak muscle mass somewhere between the age of 20 and 30. In this article, we’re going to discuss when guys typically stop growing and factors that determine how tall you’ll be. At what age do boys stop growing? Boys grow fastest during puberty. Some boys may begin puberty as early as nine while others might not hit it until they’re 15. For many guys, their biggest growth spurt will be between the ages of 12 to 15. Puberty can last two to five years. Spending more time in puberty doesn’t mean that you’ll be taller than somebody who spends less time in it. Growth charts show that majority of guys grow just a little after the ages of 18. In rare cases, some people may hit puberty in their late teens and continue to grow into their early twenties. The reason most guys stop growing at this age is because their growth plates fuse shortly after puberty. Growth plates are layers of cartilage found near either end of long bones of children and adolescents. They’re the part of the bone that grows longer. Once a bone is fused, it can’t continue to grow longer. Is there anything you can to do influence your growth or height? There’s little you can do to influence your height once your growth plates fuse. Even regular exercise and a healthy diet are unlikely to influence your height. You may be able to make a small gain in height by improving your posture. Improving your posture will help straighten your spine but won’t make your bones grow longer. Some ways you may be able to improve your posture include: regular stretching

Is it a boy or a girl? That’s the most common question I hear during ultrasounds. Many couples want to know before the 20-week ultrasound. And there are plenty of old wives' tales that patients reference when guessing the sex of their baby. My general response is that it's a 50/50 chance that a woman will have a boy or a girl. But that's not exactly true – there’s actually a slight bias toward male births. The ratio of male to female births, called the sex ratio, is about 105 to 100, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). This means about 51% of deliveries result in a baby boy. While the sex ratio can be distorted by populations that selectively value male over female births, there could be another explanation. Research suggests the slight natural skew of the sex ratio could be nature’s way of adjusting for higher death rates in males due to injuries, accidents, and war. For example, in England around 1900, 50.8% of births were boys. Following World Wars I and II, the rate of male births increased to 51.6%. This may not seem like a big difference, but it resulted in 32 more boys than girls born for every thousand births. Similar changes were seen in other European countries as well following these wars. It seems like sex ratio shifts should be a random phenomenon. But from a medical standpoint, perhaps there’s a genetic explanation to changes in the numbers of boy and girl babies at different times in history.
