Did I rob myself of height?

[Crowsmagnon]

So when I was like 15 I had really bad acne, to the point where my forehead did not have a single smooth spot, like all raised, bumpy red skin. The rest of my face was bad but not that bad. My mom had me go on accutane through my dermatologist. Then like 3 months after I still was getting acne so we went back and I did another 5 months on acne. I read recently that it can close growth plates quicker. Right now I’m about 6’ .5”. Could I have been taller if i didn’t go on it?

This whole forum is about using your genetics as best you can? If you’re just going to reputation farm why be on it? It was a genuine question to people I assume have done more research on the topic. Jesus get a life

u probably would've been an inch or two taller, accutane makes ur plates fuse faster

Look at all the retards in the replies. No, Accutane doesn't close ur plates in normal doses, which are prescribed for acne-related treatment. The data online, which is a misconception, pertains to trials for other genetic conditions, where much higher doses were used for far longer periods than any standard acne course. Stop fear-mongering and being an idiot

Recent study I saw showed no conclusive results to the extent that the people on accutane actually were taller (this is by not even milimeters so its no difference)

for the breakdown of the study

However one flaw in the study is that there was no collected variable for how long they took it, and the dose of accutane they took it at

But lets assume all the courses were average length avg dose. Given your 8 months accutane usage being somewhat longer than a normal accutane course (4-6 months) I think your height is unaffected

All the data online about accutane closing growth plates is among individuals blasting it at like 100mg+ for like a year

No, accutane does not close your growth plates.

Any idea if there were studies where they just x rayed their growth plates like before and after accutane, I feel like it would show correlation and a better idea of it does close them fsster
