Maybe because it significantly curbs hunger, so you have a lack of nutrients for development during puberty. I also know it makes it so your dick struggles to get hard while you're on it so maybe that has something to do with it but probably not. It's probably the latter.

its not proven that adhd medications have anything to do with ur height especially ur claim that it slowed down your growth there are small factors in which this case is true but for this one it is not because you said expected height is 188 cm with is 8 cm difference from what you are and expected height is not always true.
