The beginning

[austinite]

having had an mri that told me developmentally im finished growing and based off my research, talking with my doctor also having many friends who started when they were 18, and have had no issues so far. im very comfortable with my decision.

I'm not gonna say anything that hasn't been said, but I'm curious what exactly was the determining factor of your MRI results that indicated development?

apparently while someone is still growing the growth plates are not quite in proportion to the bone and theres a slight spacing between plates that indicates room for growth and it can be seen in an mri and apparently in an xray as well. thats what i was told, and mine were completed at age 19, i was the tall, hairy freshman in high school to give you perspective
