Disease description:

Recently, I've noticed that my child has been getting thinner and hasn't grown taller for one to two years. It seems like her height growth may have stopped. What are the signs that a girl has stopped growing in height?

Signs that a girl has stopped growing may include no significant increase in height over the past one to two years, as well as progressive maturation of secondary sexual characteristics—such as breast development and gradual maturation of the ovaries and uterus—along with regular menstrual cycles. Additionally, growth plate closure may occur, which typically indicates that growth in height has either ceased or is about to stop.
