Can your growth spurt comes late?

Yes, it is possible for a growth spurt to come late. This is especially common in boys, who may not start their growth spurt until they are 14 or 15 years old. In some cases, a late growth spurt may not occur until the late teens or early twenties.

Late growth spurts are typically caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Some people are simply genetically predisposed to grow later, while others may experience a late growth spurt due to factors such as poor nutrition or chronic illness.

Late growth spurts can be a source of concern for some people, but it is important to remember that they are a normal part of development. Children who experience a late growth spurt will eventually reach their full adult height, and they may even be taller than their peers who had an earlier growth spurt.
