Answers:
YES!. On average growth plates in women close at approximately 16 or 17!. Birth control pills actually have very LITTLE estrogen in comparison to what your body naturally produces!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
when the body releases estrogen (testosterone for guys), or at least, more than usual, it tells the body to stop growing!. so birth control could end any growth you might have had!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It almost certainly is, there are rare exceptions!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
