Question on Stunted Growth?

[BARON58]

I know the aromitization of steroids into estrogen can cause a premature closure of the growth plates in the long bones but can they also cause stunted growth in the size of other bones, like the short bones in the shoulders and chest?

if used at a young age then maybe ,growth plates usealy close around the age of 21-25 so after that there would be not stunting imo

hmm, would the use of anabolics have any effect on ribcage growth then? I used steroids at 19 (regretfully) and my ribcage seems disproportionatly small compared to the rest of my body. Anyone know when the ribcage and shoulders stop filling out and if steroids effect their development?
