Thanks — now I have what I need to estimate your growth potential.
Summary of Your Details
1. Predicted Adult Height (Mid-Parental Height Method)
Mid-parental height for boys:
\frac{\text{Father’s height} + \text{Mother’s height} + 5 inches}{2} = \frac{65 + 65 + 5}{2} = 67.5 \text{ inches} = 5’7.5”
Predicted range: 5’6.5” to 5’8.5”
2. Bone Age Insight (from X-ray in Nov 2024)
In November 2024:
3. Realistic Growth Left?
Since you were 5’8” by age 15.9, with open growth plates in Nov 2024, here’s the likely situation:
Most Likely Adult Height:
5’8.5” to 5’9” (174–175 cm)
This would put you above your genetic prediction — likely due to good nutrition, health, or earlier puberty.
If you’d like, you can get an updated hand X-ray today, and I can estimate whether the growth plates are now closed or still open — which gives a very accurate growth prediction. Let me know!

Summary of Your Details
- Biological sex: Male
- DOB: August 28, 2009
- Current age: Almost 16 years old (15 years, 11 months)
- Current height: 5’8” (173 cm)
- Bone age in Nov 2024: ~14–15 years
- Parents’ heights: Both 5’5” (165 cm)

1. Predicted Adult Height (Mid-Parental Height Method)
Mid-parental height for boys:
\frac{\text{Father’s height} + \text{Mother’s height} + 5 inches}{2} = \frac{65 + 65 + 5}{2} = 67.5 \text{ inches} = 5’7.5”


2. Bone Age Insight (from X-ray in Nov 2024)
In November 2024:
- Bone age was ~14–15
- Growth plates were still open → still growing
- You’re now nearly 16 → most males slow down after 16, but a small amount of growth can still occur if plates aren’t fully fused yet.

3. Realistic Growth Left?
Since you were 5’8” by age 15.9, with open growth plates in Nov 2024, here’s the likely situation:
Growth Plate Status | Expected Remaining Growth |
Still open (as of now) | 0.5 to 1.5 inches possible |
Partially closing | Maybe 0.5 inch max |
Fully fused now | No more growth |

Most Likely Adult Height:
5’8.5” to 5’9” (174–175 cm)
This would put you above your genetic prediction — likely due to good nutrition, health, or earlier puberty.
