Is there any truth to the idea that growing or shaving a beard can affect height at around 15.7 years old? Also, what exactly is the age of puberty? I'm a bit curious and confused about how these things are related.
Growing a beard at the age of 15.7 does not directly affect your height. Height is primarily determined by genetics and the growth plates in your bones, which usually close around the age of 18 to 21. Puberty typically starts between ages 10 and 14 for girls and 12 to 16 for boys, during which growth and physical changes occur.
