Growth potential can be assessed with an x-ray of your wrist/palm. There are growth center in long bones of the fingers that can be used to predict growth potential. Most males will grow 2.5"/yr until they near the end. When they grow less than 1"/yr they are near the end. Male stature growth often stops between 16-18.
