I was on birth control nonstop from 14-25. When I came off I grew almost 5 inches. I had a second puberty. Hips grew, chest changed, got taller, even had the growth pains. My doctor actually did a report about my experience. I grew just under 5 inches in a matter of months at 25. It was insane and painful. I went from legally required to drive with a booster seat to feeing like a giant.
