and when you say 4.3 tanner stage, how do u get the decimal? like idk wat my tanner stage is.

If you wan't to check your tanner stage then just go here: http://www.lavistachurchofchrist.org/LVs...rStage.htm howver this tanner stage isn't very accurate in my opinion but it's the best one I've seen so far.


Ok just finished doing mine.. my tanner stage is 3.3... for a 18 year old girl.

is that weird or normal?

Wow seriously 3.3 thats pretty low for your age, I think you can still grow 1-3 more inches. Good Luck!

okay but y do some people state their tanner stage wen it has nothing to do with height? also, on the wikipedia link, i didnt find a tanner stage for height. just pubic hair, breast, and balls


Stage 1, 2, 3 are the "growing stages", it is during these phase which your growth is fast. Stage 4 is the time when your growth significantly slows down, but that does not mean there is NO growth, just very slow, during this phase, an individual could only have an inch to three left to grow, stage 5 is when growth no longer occurs, Yes, NO natural growth left.

Tanner stage do play a role in terms of natural growth, if you want to grow a lot, you better hope your tanner stages isn't high. You can still grow even after tanner stage 5, but these are no longer natural growth, just height squeezed out from better posture, constant stretching etc.

Usually, the age at which at which most guys get a 4.x tanner stage is an average of 16 years old.

WhiteNight my tanner stage is at 4.3 so does that mean I must have hit puberty early, I'm 15.4 years old at the moment, hope I get at least 2 more inches.


I am not sure, but according to general standards, it seems like you hit puberty a little earlier than most 15 year olds, who are supposed to be around the 3.5-3.9 range, thus explaining growth spurt. I personally lie around 4.2-4.4 too, so I hope I can get 5'10/5'11 through that.

Work hard and take care. Wink

says i have a tanner stage of exactly 4

Well you have a bit more growth than me then, probably 2-3 inches.


Not by much though, probably just an inch.

At tanner stage 4, I would say natural growth is around 1-4 inches left depending on circumstances.

Very weird.

I am not saying it is impossible but having 3.3 for an 18 year old girl is the least to say ... hard to believe. I think you better double check, usually, an 18 year old girl should be close to 5, which is approaching the end of puberty already.
