Can someone tell me if my plates are closed and if they aren't how much time I have left to grow?

I js don't want to cope with the fact that it's over
 
they're almost closed, hurry up and boost roids if ur short before it's too late, but anyways, always consult a doctor
 
Your plates are mostly still open, but appear to be late-stage in several phalanges. You can still see clear epiphyseal lines at the ends of the metacarpals and proximal phalanges, meaning they are not fully closed. I'd estimate that the bone age is around 15-17, with a likelihood of full fusion within 1-2 years.

The plates in your knees are more important. The ones in your hands could be open but you still would not grow if the ones in your knees are closed
 
Yo tysm for taking the time and effort to write a useful and informative response. I am around 15 and 3 months but I am just wondering when you say full fusion are you referring to the hand, knees, torso, or everything?

When I said full fusion, I was referring specifically to the hand growth plates, since that’s what we’re looking at in the X-ray.

Other areas like the knees and spine usually fuse a bit later, and total skeletal fusion (everything) can take until around 17–19 in most males.

I'm not a doctor but I have decent knowledge

your plates are probably open due to the large distance between the distal radius and the ulna I believe.

In the fingers many of the phalanges look more fused but the key growth plates at the wrist still seem visible and this is another indicator of open plates
