Discover Your Potential Height with Our Height Calculator

Use our height calculator to predict future height. This tool is backed by established formulas and provides insights into potential growth influences.

How to Use Our Height Calculator

This tool provides the mid-parental height calculation method and the growth charts method. Select the method you want to use, and choose between cm or ft, input the height and necessary information, then obtain the results with a single tap.

How is potential height estimated and what factors influence it?

There are several methods to predict the future height:

Mid-Parental Height Calculation: This is a commonly used method to estimate a child' adult height. This method adds the father' height and mother' height (in cm or inches), divides it by 2, then adds 6.5 cm for boys or subtracts 6.5 cm for girls. However, this is a rough estimate and the actual height can be influenced by various factors such as nutrition, health, and physical activity. Check out our mid-parental height calculator.
Growth Charts: Pediatricians often use growth charts to track a child' growth over time and predict adult height. These charts, such as those provided by the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, show the average heights for children at different ages. Check out our growth chart height calculator.
Khamis-Roche Method: This is a more sophisticated method that considers the child' weight and height, as well as the parents' heights. It' often used in scientific research and might provide a more accurate prediction than the mid-parental method, but it requires a more complex calculation.
