Im a 15 year old male who hasn't had a period of fast growth like my peers. As at 12 I was 5ft3 and now at 15 I'm 5ft5 and I dont believe that I am a late bloomer as I'm developing side burns. Is it possible for teenagers to grow at later teenage years. Also I have a father who is 6ft2 and mother who is 5ft2 aren't you not supposed to grow closer to the taller parent if male.

@kebablad616, adolescents are often concerned about their growth. I get it. I moved your post to this discussion where you can connect with others as well as read some of the helpful posts from mentors. Check it out here:
