Since you know the whole puberty thing, you know that hormones aren't predictable!. But it's possible that you need to have a few medical tests just to make sure everything is in the range of normal!. If you think you really are "behind", then the only person who can tell you if you're right or not is your own family doctor!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I was 6 feet even at 14 and am 6' 1" today!. You may get a growth spurt; you may not!. Ask your mom and dad how tall their brothers are, and compute the average!. That will give you a rough idea, maybe!. I have 4 brothers!. 3 are within two inches, either way, of 6 feet!. One is 5' 7"!.

You should talk to a doctor, too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Height is determined by genetics!. Here on the genealogy forum we research our ancestors (where they came from, our family trees)!. That is not genetics!. It is history!. Genealogists are not geneticists!. You are in the wrong forum for this question!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

you probably haven't reached your growth spurt yet, but if you're really worried about your height, you can discuss growth hormones with your parents/ doctor!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
