Calculation method

Based on parents' height (mid-parental formula): Boy = (Father + Mother + 13) ÷ 2, Girl = (Father + Mother − 13) ÷ 2, with a predicted range of ±5 cm. The current-height method compares the child's age and current height with the average for the same age to estimate a growth percentile, then predicts the final height (range ±4 cm).

Adequate sleep

Growth hormone is released most during sleep. Elementary students need 9-11 hours, teens need 8-10 hours.

Balanced nutrition

Eat foods rich in protein, calcium, and vitamin D. Include milk, eggs, fish, vegetables, and fruits.

Regular exercise

Activities like jumping rope, basketball, and swimming stimulate growth plates. Exercise 30+ minutes daily.

Good posture

Poor posture hinders growth. Maintain correct posture and stretch regularly.

Note

This calculation is based on statistical averages. Actual height may vary due to genetics, nutrition, sleep, exercise, and other factors.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the height prediction?

It is a prediction based on statistical averages, presented with a ±4-5 cm range. Actual height can vary due to genetics, nutrition, sleep, and exercise, so use it as a reference.

What does the growth percentile mean?

It is your child's relative height position compared with peers of the same age. For example, the 75th percentile means roughly the 25th tallest out of 100 children of the same age.
