A member asked:
Hello, are the growth plates previously closed in the wrist or knees? does testosterone itself close growth plates or must it be converted to estrogen to close the growth plates?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Odd post: Both testosterone & estrogen accelerate growth & eventually end up closing the growth plated in all bones.
