At what age do ppl stop growing

Postby Nymphomanic on Sat May 12, 2007 10:24 pm

I'm just asking becaue I was discussing it with a friend and we differed. I thought it was about 18 but she said ppl could grow till they're 25. Which one of us is right?

Depends what kind of growth you're talking about. People stop growing taller any time between about 12 and 25, depending on the person. But the body and brain continue to develop until about age 25.

There's a word I've been trying to remember for about four years now... it's what my biology teacher in school called the ______ point: the point at which an organism stops growing and starts aging (for humans, about age 25). Anyone know it?

The thing about your nose and ears happens more in men than in women thats why old men always have those huge noses

What part of 'em? Looking around the beach I'd say ears, noses, belly's, and back hair either never stop or start up again at about 40.

nose, ears and feet grow until you cark it.

last growth spurt normally is up to 22, then your bones stop growing. The one kindo between 17/18 to 22 is your bones filling out and therefore not a major growth spurt. however one of my mates grew from 6 foot 2 to 6 foot 5 between 18 and 22 which is pretty big. After 22 if you do grow something measurable it would be very very unusual.
stopped growing at 17
