Is late puberty genetic?
I'm starting to get more acne and I grew 5 inches all of a sudden this year at 18. and my brother didn't stop growing until his 22nd birthday. he grew 2 inches at 21-22.
My doctor said i can possibly grow till my 22nd birthday. and probably grow 4.5 inches like my brother did after 18....
i' 5'10'' right now. and my doctor thinks i can hit 6'0''-6'2''. but if not 6 feet, at least 5'11''......
i was 5'5'' about a year ago. Is it just because of my late puberty? My dad stopped growing at 13. But my brother and I grew alot in our late teens and him in his early 20s.

This is not late puberty, this is normal puberty. Puberty for most males doesn't end till around 21.
Also not ALL the changes you experience in your body happen at puberty. Your body still changes well past then.
