That's a discussion you need to have with your professional body piercer. Jewellery sizing for specific piercings is very important and sometimes what you want and what you get are two different things due to the structure of your anatomy. So talk to your piercer and work out with him/her what would be best for you.

How long til a septum piercing closes up after its been pierced a few months and healed?

Assuming you are talking about the septum of your nose... It is very possible that it will never close back up. Depending on how much cartilage you removed (diameter of the hole) the skin may not be able to bridge the gap. Typically cartilage does not grow back, however, skin will attempt to cover the hole. If it does this you could be looking at over a year, sometimes 2 years before the hole is closed. It really depends on how large the hole is, your own body's unique healing abilities and ethnic background. Some people develop a thick type of scar tissue and that can become a medical or cosmetic issue of it's own. Assuming you have not had this type of scarring during your time with your septum pierced, I would say 1-2 years will tell you if it will close up. Again, if it is a large piercing typical of that area, it is likely not to ever fully close up due to the removal of cartilage.
