Ongoing growing pains? i'm 17 and currently experiencing the same growing pains as a child. but it's not my joints, it's in the middle of my bones.

Common in youth: Bone pains, especially in longer bones of arms and legs are common in youth. Since there is no detectable medical cause, these are generally considered a part of growing or termed as growing pains. You should make sure get annual checks to check your hemoglobin as anemia can also cause these which can be easily treated with oral iron supplementation.

Growing Pains: Most girls quit growing about 2 years after menarche, by that time your growth plates have fused and you cannot get any taller. If it has been more than 2 years since you started your periods, I would get this checked out by your doctor. You need a good examination and possibly Xrays. Good luck.
