I know you're thinking, I want to be taller, or I want to be shorter and are desperate to know how much you'll grow, but you really can't be sure. I can give you a fair idea though.

It's actually better to start puberty late. If you start at the age of 9 or 10, you find that you grow less than if you start at 14 or 15.

There are two stages of your growth spurt. There's the early couple of years, and the later time. Generally speaking, boys stop growing 6 years after they've started their growth spurt. In the first 2 years of it, you will grow 1.5 to 2.5 inches in a year. So if you're 5ft, you might make 5ft4 or 5ft5 after 2 years. But don't worry, you haven't finished growing. In the last couple of years, you grow between 2.5 and 4.5 inches in a year. Strictly speaking, most boys grow around 4 inches a year in that time (some boys may not even reach the second phase of the growth spurt while others will carry on till the age of 20 to 23). So in the last little while, you'll probably go from 5ft4 or 5ft5 to 5ft11 to a little above 6ft. But you can never be sure.
