Patient's question:
My epiphyseal plates have already closed, and it is said that they can be reactivated. I want to grow taller, is there a method? Is the reactivation of the epiphyseal plates really possible?Previous treatment and outcomes: None.
Regardless of what kind of assistance is available: Is there a method? Is the reactivation of the epiphyseal plates really possible?
Doctor's answer:
The height of a child is primarily determined by the height of the parents, but it is also influenced by postnatal factors such as nutrition and physical exercise. Genetic factors account for 70%, while postnatal factors account for 30%. However, postnatal factors are also quite important.Recommendation: Child growth and development have two peak periods: the first is within the first six months after birth, which is the fastest growth period for the baby. The second is during puberty, which occurs roughly between the ages of 12 and 17 for boys. Nutrition and physical exercise are particularly important during puberty.
