A member asked:
Know it's rare for epiphyseal plates to not close or close many yrs past puberty. what are conditions that could cause that to happen in those cases?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
These vary: Not sure if you are asking how to/seeking delayed closure or just need to know what conditions may cause this? A clarification may be helpful. See the links in the meantime. http://www.naturalheightgrowth.com/2012/09/20/theories-on-delaying-puberty-to-extend-the-growth-period/
