Eunuchs were tall due to early castration before puberty. The closure of the epiphyses or bone growth plates are due to the hormone estrogen. In males estrogen is produced by chemically altering the hormone testosterone. Since the Eunuchs were castrated before puberty, they were not producing testosterone and thus had low levels of estrogen. This low level of estrogen meant that the growth plates would not close as early leading to tall growth patterns.
