@thevagdoc: Hormones affect your maximum height and also causes you to shrink. You get hit with height changes both in puberty and at a certain point in aging and estrogen has a lot to do with it. #thevagdoc **** This is general educational information not specific medical advice meant for any individual
So when I say I haven’t grown since I was 12, I’m not being near as sarcastic as I thought it was.

I got my period around 9 and I asked my dr at the time how much more i’m gonna grow and she was like “well you probably aren’t going to grow much normally you’ll stop around a year after your first period maybe a half an inch or so at the most would be my guess” and i got mad at her and asked her how she is going to tell a kid they arent going to grow anymore isnt that what kids do grow?? 😭😂 she was right lol, did not grow since 😂😭

Why has no one told me this? I have told many people (drs) how I don’t want to shrink. Is there anything to help prevent it? (My birth mom, her mom, great grandma all shrunk, not just a little bit at least 2-3”)

My son reached 6 ft at 14. He didn’t grow anymore after that. He needed surgery for a broken hand at 15 and he was told his growth plates were already closed.
