Last December, DD14 had her latest x ray (posted about it below) and she was at 41 degrees thoracis, 28 lumbar (compensatory) and in a Boston Brace and still progressing braced at 1 degree per month. In Jan 2013 she finally got her first menses. She's continued to grow since then (3 inches since May 2012 to May 2013). The ortho has always asked if she's gotten her first menses at our x ray appts. I know you can still grow but does this mean she will slow down? And will this mean her curve will (maybe?) stop progressing?
We have next x ray on June 10 so will be curious to see what's going on. Personally, I think her curve looks worse, but am really hoping it just can stop now.
