Wondering if some sort of abrupt hormonal issue could've caused my growth plates to close prematurely, idfk, my hormone test results were good, but it's going on 10 months since those tests and my IGF-1 was on the low side of the range. I'm 5'8, my dad's 6'3, my mom's 5'2.
I've read that very high estrogen could close your plates, but my estradiol was average, slightly low, maybe something caused a big spike in estrogen, though and caused my growth plates to close? Clearly I don't know much about how hormones can affect growth plates. It could be genetic, but I don't want to accept that just yet, considering my dad's height.
