This is an estimate from parental height alone. Most children finish within about 3.3 inches either side of it, and nutrition, puberty timing and health all shift the result. It is not a diagnosis of a growth problem.

The results provided by this tool are estimates for general educational purposes only, and are not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always talk with a qualified healthcare provider about your individual health. Never disregard or delay seeking professional medical advice because of something you have read here.
