Predict Your Child's Future Height Using Scientific Data

Disclaimer

The height prediction on this website is based on the commonly used Mid-Parental Height Formula, which estimates a child's future height based on the parents' heights. The formula is:

  • For boys: (Father's height + Mother's height + 13) / 2
  • For girls: (Father's height + Mother's height - 13) / 2

This method is supported by research and is widely accepted by pediatricians. However, predictions are estimates and can vary due to factors like nutrition, health, and genetics.
