Well, I can certainly understand why you might be curious about whether you can still grow at 19. It’s a common question, especially for those who may feel like they haven’t reached their desired height yet.
But here’s the thing: for most people, height will not increase after a certain age, usually around 18 to 20. This is because the growth plates in our bones, which are responsible for our vertical growth, tend to close during this time. Once these growth plates close, the bones can no longer lengthen and therefore, height increases are unlikely.
However, it’s important to note that there can be some small changes in height throughout the day due to the compression and decompression of the discs in our spine. When we wake up in the morning, we tend to be slightly taller than we are at the end of the day. This is because the discs in our spine become slightly compressed throughout the day due to activities like standing and sitting, causing a temporary decrease in height.
So, while there may be some minor fluctuations in height throughout the day, it’s unlikely that you will experience any significant increase in height after the age of 18 to 20. Of course, there can always be exceptions and individual variations, but this is generally the case for most people.
I hope this information helps clarify things for you. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!
