A member asked:

Please tell me, could a girl of 17 yrs can grow in height?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely : At seventeen your growth centers have likely almost closed and you are unlikely to grow much taller.If you want to know for sure an x-ray of your wrist ; hand can be analysed for bone maturity ; tell if the growth centers remain open to new growth.Good nutrition, rest and exercise allow a person to reach their tallest height while the opposite will stunt growth.
