Title: Accutane/Isotretinoin
Post by: Koi on December 07, 2016, 03:25:21 AM

Did anyone take these or similars at some point of his/her life?

I've always blamed them for stopping my growth process. Started with those at the age of 15 and been taking them for 2 years, stopped growing at 15-16. I'm close to 20 right now.

I'd write about the feeling of constantly thinking that I could've grown taller and avoided all these problems if I simply hadn't taken that treatment (my family forced me to do it, though), but I'll better talk about it later.

Did anyone have similar experiences?

Cheers.

They usually only give that medication after you have stopped growing.

You say that you stopped growing at 15-16, do you remember the last amount of cm you increased?? Steroids affect growth for sure.
