Hey guys, I need some insights. I am 14 years old, current height is 181 cm (approx. 5'11.5"), weight is 69 kg (152 lbs). I recently got an X-ray done to check my growth plates, and the results show that my bone age is significantly advanced, sitting at around 17-18 years old.
Here is the exact translation of my medical X-ray report:
X-ray Description: An X-ray of both wrists in a frontal projection reveals no bone-traumatic or bone-destructive changes. The number and arrangement of the wrist bones are normal; all carpal bones and the sesamoid bone of the 1st digit are fully formed (which usually form by age 13). The growth plates (epiphyseal plates) of the metacarpal bones and phalanges are closed (typically closing at ages 17-18). The growth plates of the radius and ulna are narrow and barely visible (typically closing at ages 19-22). Joint surfaces of the wrist joint are smooth and sharp, and the joint space is uniform. Bone tissue mineralization is unchanged. Conclusion: X-ray presentation without bone pathology, estimated bone age is ~17-18 years old.
Since my growth plates are almost entirely fused or closing fast, what can I do right now to milk every millimeter of my remaining genetic height potential? What are your thoughts on diet, supplementation, or posture habits at this stage?"
