A member asked:
I reached puberty 3 years early, will i stop growing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to say: For some puberty runs its course in 3-5 years and others it may take 4-7. Often, you will follow the pattern of one or both parents. An xray of your wrist and hand can be analysed for growth plates and see if your growth will stop soon or continue for years.
