I'm 15 at 5'2 and my bone age is 17, I got a xray today and getting the results tomorrow to find out if my leg plates are open, if they are I'll take hgh to hopefully squeeze an inch or two more before surgery, if not it is what it is and I'll get ll surgery. Is the whole thing about proportions cope? I feel like it's way better to be unproportionate and be atleast average height than be 5'2.

Especially as it would only really affect you when you have no clothes on, you can just fraud proportions with clothing

I have one scheduled for next week, I really hope I have time I got the xray today and they didn't even let me see it or anything I just got a text and it said this
"
EXAMINATION: XR KNEE 3


VIEWS LEFT


HISTORY: M85.80-Advanced bone age


TECHNIQUE: Three views of the left knee are submitted.


COMPARISON: None


FINDINGS:


No acute fracture. No dislocation.


The tibiofemoral and patellofemoral compartments are maintained without significant degenerative change. No effusion."

That's it, it doesn't say wheather it's open or not

I dont know. I myself have parents of similar heights to yours, and I ended up significantly shorter than them myself. I stopped growing very early (14/15) and remember spiraling about it. I really understand what youre going through

However at 5'2 thats statistically very unlikely. There has to be SOMETHING stopping your growth. If you have an appointment to check thats a great start. Book appointments to endocrinologists or doctors asap

If it makes you feel any better I will inform you this: With all adolescents who have something stunting their growth whether it be a GH deficiency, hypothyroidism, etc. Once it is treated your body will "catch up" to its genetics aslong as your plates are open. There is tons of literature that shows this, so dont lose hope yet.

TL;DR Book appointments to doctors and endocrinologists

And btw if you do find out theres an issue make sure to order an aromatase inhibitor to keep your plates open even longer. Its just a pill you take

Thank you bro, I'm just really worried my parents seem to not be very eager at all about this and I just really need to know before my shit closes. I was also very stressed during puberty and was on Zoloft which is a medicine and I've heard it can lower gh and stuff. I just got off of that so hopefully with that if I can get on hgh and an ai I can maybe grow 2 more inches atleast to 5'4 I can get ll after hs

I went to an endocrinologist and he said I could get bloodwork to see if I have a deficiency but at this point correcting it wouldn't change my height, but he only scanned my hand and made that conclusion from my hand plates, not my legs or anything.

interestingly enough I was also put on zoloft around the time I stopped growing taller at 14

The research shows that the non medicated groups grew 1.1 inches while the SSRI groups grew 0.6 inches on HIGH dosages

Fuck that nigger bro. Get bloodwork. Beg your parents

Tell them you will kill yourself if they dont get your GH checked

I promise you the pain of regret is always worse than the pain of not trying or however the saying goes

And it kills me to see young niggas go through the same shit I went through :feelswhy:

I slowed down literally when I was 11 which is exactly when I got out on Zoloft and I've barley grown after that

if your wrist plates are partially open that means your plates are open in general. U dont even need to check ur leg plates they close after wrists and fingers

Partially open might mean ur close to the end though.

damn nigga bone age 17, if you have the x-rays submit them
 
I grew mostly between 15-16. From like 5'6 to 6'1. Never did any blood work. Constant stress every day, terrible sleep, and diet of potato chips and soda.
I remember i was almost the shortest in my class, everyone already went through puberty, but then suddenly became one of the tallest.

I’m so sorry, I hope you can find peace in life bhai

It’s better to be taller than 5’2 and disproportionate rather than staying 5’2 and proportionate

Considering that, learn to cope with your height until you can afford LL

Sure, you’ll never be tall but I can’t imagine what life as a 5’2 man is like

Bro I've seen like 3 threads about ur height, proportions doesn't matter when height is all you can think about. I would rather be taller than proportional

I'm in the same boat I'm getting it mostly for my mental peace honestly it's become an obsession for me
