A member asked:
Can i still grow even if i'm an 18 year old asian male? my height is 163cm, my mom is 156cm, and my dad is about 167~170cm.

Maybe: Your projected final height based on your parent heights would be ~167 cm. However, most males who have entered puberty at a normal time will finish their linear growth at 17-18. An xray of your wrist and hand could reveal you have delayed growth center closure and may have more growth potential.If the growth centers are closed you are done.
