The femur bone typically stops growing in length after puberty, around the ages of 18 to 25, when the growth plates (epiphyseal plates) close. In females, this process generally occurs earlier, around ages 18 to 20, while in males, it can extend to about 22 to 25 years of age. After the growth plates fuse, the femur's length will not increase further, although bone density may continue to change throughout life.
