[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The later kids get their growth spurts, the more height they gain. https://www.nature.com/articles/pr2015104 [/quote] A different study- this graph shows three cohorts of boys and girls - early, mid, and late onset growth spurt. The late onset growth spurt group achieves greatest total height, followed by mid and then early onset. This is why the “late bloomer” concept exists. Notably, this does not mean that shorter stature kids will surpass their peers. These curves were controlled for pre-pubertal height. So if you take 3 kids who had the same pre-pubertal height, the one who experiences their growth spurt later will likely be taller by adulthood. https://www.frontiersin.org/files/Articles/882840/fendo-13-882840-HTML-r1/image_m/fendo-13-882840-g002.jpg[/quote]
