Female 12 year old predicted adult height 4.7 and a half

My daughter is 12.6 and 4 foot 5 1/2 inches tall. Her bone age is 13.6

Impression from radiologist is normal skeletal maturity.

Two standard deviation is 20.5 months using brush foundation method

The endocrinologist thinks that her finger growth plates have fused

Endo also thinks she can grow only 2 inches taller at this point. Her adult height will be 4.7 and a half inches.

Can anyone ever have growth plates in their wrist and knee open for little longer for 2 to 3 years after their finger growth plates have fused

Is there a 1 percent chance that my daughter can grow for 2 more years? Is there 1 percent chance that my daughter can grow to a 4.8 or 4.9?

By the way she does not have a growth harmone deficiency. Endo assures a .5 inch to one inch addition with gh injections. I do not want to risk it for an inch

The endo said she is in tanner 4 which is the 4th stage of puberty

She started menarch 6 months back when she was 12 years old

She had 3 inches growth from 11 to 12 years while usually she only grows 2 inches every year.

After menarch in the past 6 months it is half inch or one inch growth im not able to say exactly.

Appreciate your inputs so much.
