I’m 5’4.75 and have a bone age of 17. I tried asking for a bone age x-ray from my doctor so many times a year ago but my doctor kept refusing so I switched doctors and eventually got referred to an endocrinologist 4 months ago where I got my bone age. Is it possible I can at least grow 1 inch still and how much would it have mattered if I started a year ago where my bone age would have been 16? At 14 I was like 5’3.5 or 5’4 I think.
My dad is 5’8/5’7 and my mom is 4’11 yes ik they are short. My sister is 5’3/5’2 tho and my growth chart/curve pointed me towards being 5’8/5’9 my whole life up until recently. Also could sleep have stunted my height because I got 2-5 hours of sleep with several all nighters, starting at 11, I always had poor sleep as a kid too but not that bad.
Btw did anyone else’s doctor just straight up deny you a bone age x-ray even when you offered to pay for it
. Like wtf they give it to kids yet my doctor didn’t wanna give it to me even when she gave me other x rays for scoliosis and other things. She was also kinda laughing and being an asshole when I asked for the third time and when I asked why she didn’t wanna give it she just said I don’t need it in a rude tone. Legit I don’t get it and I’m still mad about it. Switched doctors after that, black woman to Asian man.
