A member asked:
Iam male 16 year old my height is 175 and my hand growth plates has close will i grow more or my height growth is stop?

Any growth last yr.?: If no growth in the past year, then growth has finished. If one did grow some, there may be growth this year. Most people reach their maximum height in their late teens. Without nutritional problems or chronic illnesses, height is largely based on genetics and parental heights. Aside from eating right, exercising, sleeping well and being happy, there's not much a person can do that changes height.
