Do guys have a growth spurt at age 17 and up?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not often: By 17 most males see their growth centers begin to close and growth slows.An x-ray of the hand can be analysed to see what stage the growth is entering. Some "late bloomers"continue slow steady growth into their early 20's, but most stop at 18.
