Kindly get a proper consultation for understanding of your problem and for appropriate treatment.

Thank you for reaching out with your concerns about your growth plates. It's important to address any potential issues with growth and development as early as possible to ensure the best possible outcomes. Based on your doctor's assessment and your current age, it sounds like you may be experiencing early maturation and potential early fusion of growth plates. This can lead to shorter height and may have implications for overall development. Your doctor's recommendation to seek consultation with an endocrinologist is a good idea. An endocrinologist is a specialist who can evaluate and treat hormonal imbalances and growth disorders. They can also provide guidance on any potential treatment options, such as hormone therapy, to help promote growth and development. In addition to seeking consultation with an endocrinologist, it's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular exercise. This can help promote overall health and wellness and support healthy growth and development. It's important to continue to work closely with your healthcare team to monitor your growth and development and address any concerns that may arise. They can provide guidance and support throughout the process to help ensure the best possible outcomes.
