Ingabe abafana bayakhula eminyakeni yabo yobusha kamuva?

Abafana babonakala bekhula ngamanani amangalisayo, okungenza noma yimuphi umzali azibuze: Abafana bayeka nini ukukhula?

NgokweNational Health Service (NHS), iningi labafana liqeda ukukhula kwabo lapho beneminyaka engu-16 ubudala. Abanye abafana bangaqhubeka nokukhula ngamasentimitha amabili noma ngaphezulu eminyakeni yabo yobusha.

Qhubeka ufunde ukuze ufunde kabanzi ngokukhula kwabafana nokuthi yini ongayilindela.

Ukuthomba kukuthinta kanjani ukukhula?

Abafana bakhula ngokushesha ngesikhathi sokuthomba. Kodwa-ke, amazinga okukhula angahluka kakhulu ngoba abafana badlula ebusheni eminyakeni ehlukene. Ngokwesilinganiso, abafana bavame ukukhula cishe ngamasentimitha ama-3 (noma ama-7.6 amasentimitha) ngonyaka ngalesi sikhathi.

Iminyaka yomfana lapho edlula ebusheni ayithinti ukuthi uzogcina emude kangakanani, kepha izothinta lapho ukukhula kwakhe kuqala futhi kuyeka.

Abafana bavame ukuwela ezigabeni ezimbili:

• ukuvuthwa kokuqala, ukuqala ukuthomba uneminyaka yobudala eyi-11 noma eyi-12
• ukuvuthwa sekwedlule isikhathi, ukuqala ukuthomba uneminyaka yobudala eyi-13 noma eyi-14

Zombili lezi zigaba zivame ukuthola isilinganiso esilinganayo samasentimitha ukuphakama, kepha abavuthiwe sekwephuzile bavame ukukhula ngezinga elisheshayo ukwenza isikhathi esilahlekile. Ngesikhathi sokuthomba, ukuphakama okuphezulu abafana abakufinyelela kungamaphesenti angama-92 wobude babo babantu abadala.

Abafana abanemikhawulo yokukhula ngaphambi kokuba baqale ukuthomba basathola isilinganiso esilinganayo samasentimitha ukuphakama ngesikhathi sokuthomba. Abalokothi babuyisele noma ikuphi ukusilela ngaphambi kokuthomba.

Yini ubude obumaphakathi babafana?

Kwabesilisa baseMelika abaneminyaka engama-20 ubudala nangaphezulu, leli lingamasentimitha angama-69.1 (175.4 cm), noma lingaphezudlwana kwamamitha amahlanu ububanzi ngamasentimitha angu-9 ubude.

Ukuphakama ngobudala

Eminyakeni eyishumi ubudala, ukuqala kokuqala kokuthomba, uhhafu wabo bonke abafana uzoba ngaphansi kwamasentimitha angama-54.5 (138.5 cm). Ukuphakama okuphakathi okubalwe ngezansi kuthathwe kusuka ku-2000:

Iyiphi indima edlalwa ngofuzo ekuphakameni?

Izakhi zofuzo ezivela kubo bobabili abazali zibamba iqhaza ekunqumeni ukuphakama nokukhula kwabafana namantombazane. Ezinye izinto njengokudla, izinga lomsebenzi, kanye nokudla komama ngesikhathi sokukhulelwa nakho kuthinta ukuphakama.

Indlela ephakathi kwabazali ingenye yezindlela zokubikezela ukuthi ingane izoba mude kangakanani. Ngale ndlela, uhlanganisa ukuphakama kwabazali (ngamasentimitha), bese uhlukanisa inombolo ngo-2.

Faka ama-intshi angu-2,5 kule nombolo ukuthola ukuphakama okubikezelwe komfana. Susa amasentimitha angu-2,5 kule nombolo ukuthola ukuphakama okubikezelwe kwentombazane.

Isibonelo, thatha umfana nobaba wakhe ongamasentimitha angama-70 nomama ongama-62 inches.

1. 70 + 62 = 132
2. 132 / 2 = 66
3. 66 + 2.5 = 68.5

Ukuphakama okubikezelwe komfana kungaba ngamasentimitha angama-68.5, noma ama-5 amamitha angu-8.5 ubude.

Lokhu akunembile, noma kunjalo. Izingane zingagcina zikhule ngamasentimitha amane ubude noma zimfushane kunokuphakama okubikezelwe ngale ndlela.

Ngabe abafana bakhula ngejubane elihlukile kunamantombazane?

Abafana namantombazane bakhula ngendlela ehlukile. Abafana bavame ukukhula ngezinga elisheshayo ebuntwaneni. Ngokwesilinganiso, nabafana bavame ukuba bade kunamantombazane. Yingakho odokotela basebenzisa amashadi okukhula ahlukene kubafana namantombazane ukukala ukukhula ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.

Iphesenti ingane yakho ewela kulo alibalulekile njengokuvumelana. Uma ingane yakho yehla isuka ku-40th percentile iye ku-20, ngokwesibonelo, udokotela wayo angancoma ukuhlolwa ukuze kutholakale imbangela eyimbangela.

Yini ebangela ukubambezeleka kokukhula?

Kunezimbangela eziningi zokubambezeleka kokukhula, kufaka phakathi:

• izimo zezokwelapha ezithinta i-thyroid
• ama-hormone okukhula
• amazinga e-insulin
• ama-hormone ocansi
• I-Down syndrome nezinye izifo zofuzo

Abafana abakhuluphele futhi abakhuluphele bavame ukuba nezinga lokukhula eliphansi. Ukungondleki ngesikhathi sobuntwana nakho kungabambezela ukukhula.

Ukubambezeleka kokukhula kungahle kubonakale kakhulu ngesikhathi sobuntwana, yingakho kubalulekile ukugcina isikhathi ngokuvakasha kwezingane. Ekuvakasheni ngakunye, udokotela wezingane wengane yakho uzolandelela ukukhula. Lokho kuvumela udokotela ukuthi abone inkinga ngokushesha.

Yini ukuthatha?

Ngokuvamile, abafana bavame ukuyeka ukukhula beneminyaka yobudala eyi-16. Izici eziningi zingathinta ukukhula futhi, ekugcineni, nokuphakama. Lokhu kufaka izici zezemvelo kanye nokudla kanye namazinga womsebenzi womzimba.

Uma ukhathazekile ngokubambezeleka kokukhula, thintana nodokotela wengane yakho.
