Without using the backup history from msdb system database, as you wrote in thread subject?
Do you have a monitoring software, which records database size?
If not: No way to get the information.

Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
Is there a script to evaluate how much the databases have grown in the past 2 years, like do a trend.
thanks

what if the backup history tables have been deleted
The information isn't recorded (except for indirectly in backuphistory), quite simply. So either use backuphistory or roll your own (using your own scripts or some monitoring tool).
If you didn't record this yourself and backup history isn't available, then you are out of luck.
what if the backup history tables have been deleted
Then you lost the requested information?
Do you have a most recently backup, before the history was deleted? Then restore it under a different database name then "msdb" as common user database.
