Update 03/04/2022:
Measured my height, currently standing at shy of 175cm (5’9). HGH is showing great results! I might start taking pictures if people want?
Also on a side note, I am no longer considering quadrilateral. I am perfectly happy with the results. I only have femur LL in my mind now. It is beautiful how 2 inches changed my perspective, can’t wait to see how it’ll be when I reach 5’11-6ft (assuming I’m lucky enough with HGH).
Can I have some advice as to how to approach my doctor about getting a bone examination
I'm so glad you found peace in 2 inches! I bet if i wore 2 inch lifts I would feel much better about my life
Quick update: Saw a public endocrinologist and he judged me HARD. Looks like I will have to continue funding my own GH. That's fine I guess, I'll just delay LL for a while.
In his own words "It's not worth it, you'll only gain a few inches." Yeah bro that is the point...

Say you’d like to check if your growth plates are open. A leg MRI is great for this. Sometimes hand X rays are done but I’m not a fan of them.

Just realized something kinda late... with that sitting height you should have been an absolute giant. Makes me feel a bit better about missing my genetic potential by 2-3 cm lmao

I'm wondering what height it would translate to. What do you think?
I personally wouldn't want to be taller than 6'2, knocking your head everywhere doesn't sound fun.
This makes me wonder how tall my kids will be if I have kids (specially as I'll track development closely).
Another measurement taken today: Knee height = 54cm / 21in. I noticed that on r/tall, I had a similar knee height to someone who's 5'11-6'1. One person who was 6'9 had a 25.5in knee height. Because of this, I believe that I have short femurs (which appears to be the case when I'm on my knees, it looks a bit goofy). Looks like femur LL is the way to go!

Given that the average lower extremity/height ratio is around .5, probably 197cm+ to be honest (given that you're not a wild genetic anomaly + tall people usually have long legs proportionally). Yeah I'd agree after 6'2/3 the benefits diminish, but damn, I can't imagine losing that much from what could have been natural height... ouch. Are you sure you don't have a condition of some sort?
