Could I still grow taller?

Edit Post

So, I'm 18, and I'm pretty sure that I am almost done with puberty. Problem is, I've never had a teenage growth spurt before. I am 5'6.5, and my mother is 5'6, and my dad is 6'0. According to my growth curve, I was estimated to be between 6'0-6'3. Here were my heights from 10 onwards:
10-5'0
11-5'3
12-5'5
13-5'6
14-5'6
15-5'6
16-5'6
17-5'6
18-5'6.5

So, will I still hit my growth spurt? Everything else has been normal; I have facial hair, a lot of muscle mass, etc. but my growth has lagged waaaaaay behind. Will I still hit my growth spurt?

You might.

But considering you didn't grow much from 12-18 I wouldn't count on it.

When I asked my friends who are short (myself included) about how their growth was like throughout puberty, most mentioned about being their final height around 14/15-ish and only grew a few cm after that while most of others had growth spurts. Then again, this is just my observation with the people around me. Out of all the many people whom I knew, only 1 had a growth spurt after 18. But you have a tall dad, so you still have a chance.

Regarding myself, I had hit my final natural height at around 17 and never grew a single cm after that.

Yeah, I'm hoping to end up like Dennis Rodman, whom went from 5'7-6'9 between senior year of high school to junior year of college. I mean , maybe not that much lol, but 2-4 inches before doing ll would be amazing!

Highly unlikely, Dennis Rodman used human growth hormone to grow taller.

I had no idea HGH could be that effective for this purpose, The guy managed to grow such an insane ammount in a very short time span and didnt suffer any noticable negative side effects. It seems with such efficiency it should be easy and safe with a lesser ammount of HGH to gain some inches at least, which would make it quite simply to avoid having our children ending up short.

Unless of course this guy was insanely lucky and very few individuals gain any height from taking it, or at most very little height.

Well, I am getting a growth hormone prescription from my endocrinologist.

You can use insulin growth factor 1 to increase your HGH levels and help you grow taller. Insulin growth factor 1 is the thing that is actually responsible for us growing, but it is only released when we release human growth hormones. So a release in HGH will cause a release in insulin growth factor 1 which will cause the body to grow taller.

Reduce estrogen levels to increase HGH levels. When you have a lot of estrogen in your body, you don’t release as much HGH. This is exactly why men are usually taller that women. Men have lower levels of estrogen which means we release more HGH and testosterone.

If you drink a glass of milk right when you wake up in the morning and a glass of milk right before you go to bed, you are setting your body up to release as much human growth hormone as possible which will help you grow taller.If you are looking to grow taller then you need to do it with the use of human growth hormone. Getting sleep, lifting weights, sprinting, and drinking a glass of milk right when you wake up and right before you go to bed are by far the best ways to increase your human growth hormone levels. Give it a try.

But if you'r plates are fused there is no point.
