How much did you guys grow from 17-21 or 19-21? Future ideas for growing taller?

Edit Post

Is it true that all growth stops in a male human body at 21? I know that Dennis Rodman hit this crazy growth spurt at 20 so maybe there is definitive growth still possible before 21? And did anyone in this forum grow from 20-21? Im in my last teen year trying to save myself from getting LL and im currently 5'5 wanting to reach 5'8+. Another question i wanted to ask, does anybody think that LL will be the only option to grow taller, forever?

I grew to my pre CLL height when I was 16, unfortunately I stopped growing after that. I blame excessive body  building

I've been the same height ever since I was 18 or so. (5'6.5)

I wouldn't count on any growth at 20. Just save up that $$$ like me for LL. You shouldn't wait too long for LL alternatives as recovery will be worse as you age past your early 20s based on the reading I've done on the forum.

My father is 6'3, mother is 5'9, and I'm a staggering 5'7. The shortest of all my male relatives (on both sides) is 6'0.
I was always tall for my age until I got sick at the age of 12 and put on medication. I never grew again.
Personally, I believe either the illness or medication stunted my growth, but at 5'7 I'm still within a normal height range so I can't be certain.It's quite possible I just came out shorter.

Although I've heard men grow until the age of 21, I actually don't know of anyone who grew past 17/18.
While I'm sure will eventually be some type of medication/injection that will increase height, it's probably well into the future.

I stopped at 15. Possibly before but I didn't really record it.

@whereintheworld

it sounds like that medication stunted you bro. Theres no way you should have stopped growing at 12. I didnt even come close to starting puberty at 12.  Thats impossible lol. 5'7 is not bad however you could easily hit 5'10 or 6 with LL. I hope i can hit 5'7 before i turn 21. My growth plates arent 100% fused ive seen my wrist on a x ray and it was slightly open so i hope theres other bones still growing in my body we'll see. Good luck if you ever get LL man

damn bro you must of hit puberty early. Maybe around 8? Damn thats an early age to stop growing. Most males and even females on average stop at 16 in the very least. It really shows how height is different for everybody. Not one person grows the same as the other.
