My dad is 174cm and my mom is 150cm.
I'm 17, turning 18 in May, and I'm around 170cm. I hit puberty in my late 15s/early 16s.
I remember my bone age being measured at around 13 when I was 15, so I was definitely behind.
The thing is, I've been through a growth spurt, and I'm fairly sure its finished. My growing seems to have slowed down a lot. I'm sure my plates are still open, but what should I do if I want to get taller?

Is it just over or is there any hope?
Im thinking of starting to safe up for leg lengthening, im honestly not sure.
 
you are probs done growing only thing you can really do now is get limb lengthening surgery, but it is very costly or you could look into height boosters, or shoes with high soles

My dad kept growing for 2 more years until he was around 19 but only grew very little, im fairly sure my plates are still open. What can i do to maximize that little growth i have left?
 
If they are still open u I would consider AI
