Adolescent girls have their main growth spurt usually between 11 and 16 years. Girls are prone to nutritional deficiencies due to being more weight conscious. In addition, due to their menstrual cycle, girls need more iron, zinc and calcium. Irregular and painful periods can be caused by nutritional deficiencies and birth control pills can increase the need for certain nutrients.
