how do i know if my growth plates are closed without an xray?

[shionfakechang]

im 15 and 165cm but i havent grown an inch in a while, worried i wont even be able to reach average height. Mom is 163cm and Dad is around 170cm

do a ton of drugs and see if u grow but like if you dont wanna potentially waste ur money you can only get the xray

Litteraly impossible to know for sure without a scan.

X-Ray of Left hand and wrist.

just get a x ray its easy just ask the doc or say your left hand hurts and the will x ray it

You can’t know for sure but you can look at tanner stages to get an idea of if they are closed or not

There isnt really a good way to know exactly but with 15 and you still being in puberty you will for sure still grow.

i mean u can just ask the doc for an xray to know if your growth plates are closed you dont have to larp about your hand hurting
