Growth, PAIN

Ive started growing again, im 20 and already 6'2, i was 6'1 last yr.

How much more should i expect?

P.s it is a bit painful, the term growing pains is no joke

are you turning into a giant? usually, a growth spurt won't suddenly start at 20 again after having stopped.
giantism is caused by brain tumours which stimulate too hormone, and causes pain

Well, as you're a guy, being that tall is probably a good thing.

And on the health issue - well, my mum stopped growing at 18, then started growing again at 21 for a while, before she finally stopped growing when she hit 22. My parents predict that if I'm like my mum in this aspect, I'm gonna start growing again when I hit 21 lol.

So it could just be a random growth spurt. People say women can grow til they're 21 I think - and I know you're a guy, but if it happens to women, why not to men?

If in doubt, go to a doctor :smile:

a doctor will be able to tell you more than any of us TSR-ers can.

I'm 6'4" and still growing, gradually - I'm 18, and my dad didn't stop growing until he was in his early 20's :s

I know how you feel about the pains - it feels as though your bones are splitting right down the middle. Not pleasant.

Oh, and kudos to Rouge for the optimism :wink:

My uncle started growing again around about 20'ish. he was in agony with it, his back is seriously scarred as well from the stretch marks, I'd say go talk to your doc about it.

I've not had growing pains since I was about 17 so i seriously feel sorry for you :frown:
