A member asked:

Read 95% of people stop growing b/w 16-20. when do other 5% stop & why do they keep going?does it eventually stop or can they keep growing for 10+ yrs

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Jolly Green Giants: Yes, of course you keep growing.You know that! Your hair, your nails, your skin cells, your bone marrow, your liver cells, your lung cells, in fact just about every cell in your body (there are exceptions).Each person is genetically programmed to reach a certain height and general bone structure, which will optimize given the best environmental conditions(like nutrition, sanitation,education,etc)
