A member asked:
I have facial hair and im 17 years old from a very hairy family does that mean i am done growing taller ?

Not necessarily: Facial hair is only part of the pubertal changes.Most male growth is done by 17-18 but linear growth continues until the growth centers close, some will have slower closure of the centers and continue at a slow pace to 20.An x-ray of the wrist and hand can be assessed for growth centers and determine if growh is still possible.

This is my third day on letrozole. Does taking letrozole make you grow taller, since it delays epiphyseal fusion? I am 19 years old, no facial hair yet
