I took a pretty high dose of accutane when I was 19/20 because I was sure that I was done growing (as I had an x-ray of my legs and pelvis when I was 18 and the doctor told me back then that I was done growing). But only recently I found out that the bones, that are responsible for ones 'frame', broad shoulders and back, arent done growing til mid-late 20s. The growth plates are still open until then. And now I am worrying if I stunted my 'frame grow' causing me to have narrow shoulders,..... What do u think?

why Accutane stunt your growth ?Accutane has zero affect on your growth It doesn't affect hormones which are responsible for growth.

Why are you stupid?

Accutane dries your whole body up, it might have affected your growth, who knows.
