The average height for a 14-year-old varies by gender and individual factors such as genetics and nutrition:
- For 14-year-old boys, the average height is around 163 to 167 cm (approximately 5 feet 4 inches to 5 feet 6 inches), with a typical range between about 148 cm (4 feet 10 inches) and 178 cm (5 feet 10 inches)
- For 14-year-old girls, the average height is about 160 to 161 cm (around 5 feet 3 inches), with a common range from 148 cm (4 feet 10 inches) to 173 cm (5 feet 8 inches)
Growth at this age can vary widely due to puberty stages and individual development, so these averages represent typical values rather than strict standards. Monitoring growth percentiles with a healthcare provider can provide a more personalized understanding of normal growth patterns
