T and body growth?

[Wolf Man]

I'd like to know any and all possible ways that people have heard of or have experienced with growth while taking testosterone.

I'm very curious as to what I could expect with this since I'm 18 and still have tons of growth still ready to happen naturally. Will I get taller? Will my hands and feet change too? What ways can my face change? What about my muscles and my fat distribution? With I my shoulders get broader? Can my physical hips change at all or is the size they've grown to the size they'll remain? In what ways will my genitalia change?

As you can tell I really want to know everything in terms of growth. Links are welcome too.

Will I get taller? If your growth plates haven't fused yet, possibly.
Will my hands and feet change too? My hands have gotten bigger. Feet may also get bigger. T makes bone denser, so this is one cause of growth. If you're not done growing it will influence that too.
What ways can my face change? it generally takes away the way E makes fat accumulate on your face...like your cheeks, for example. I've lost alot of fat on my face, even though I was skinny to begin with and didn't think I had "face fat". But my face has gotten narrrower and appears thinner.
What about my muscles and my fat distribution? Muscles will be gained easier and become denser. Fat will redistribute away from your butt, hips, and thighs, to your stomach. This usually takes a few months at least to start, but mine has happened relatively quickly. I've only been on T for 47 days and already my fat pattern has started to change.
With I my shoulders get broader? I thought I was done growing. I haven't grown in height since I was 17, and my feet quit growing when I was 13. But my shoulders have definitely gotten broader. Again, this may have to do with muscle gain and increased bone density.
Can my physical hips change at all or is the size they've grown to the size they'll remain? The fat around them will redistribute. If it's the bone of your hips that's cursing you though, sadly, it will not change. But you'd be surprised how many guys don't have a board build...and have hips broader than most guys. I googled it and found alot of rants from cis guys on their hips and the general consensus was that when people noticed it, it was more of a "hm, that's interesting" thing rather than a "hey, I think he's less of a man".
In what ways will my genitalia change? The smell, texture and fat around that will change. Your "dick" will get bigger. You will get erections and they'll feel strange at first.


For reference, I'm 19, and started T 47 days ago.

Here is an awesome article I found on the effects of T on us:

Tons may not be the right word. It's more likely, there's a chance my bones haven't all fused yet. (Well, with the exception of maybe the pelvis and collarbone. Those take awhile to finish. Can't think of any other notable, major examples.)

i'm 20 and i've grown in height somewhere around half an inch or so.

Yeah, that's sort of what I'm hoping for SilverFang  I don't know though since my dad is only 5'11" and I'm already 5'8".

Thanks for your input zombies and Graham. I'm hoping to start soon, maybe after I turn 19 myself in October. So I'm quite curious as to what I should expect.

You might be done growing then, unless you're like my family where everyone grows an inch at the age of 18 or so.  I got to be 5'10" this way, though I didn't get that extra inch until my sophomore year of college *sigh* and you can get a scholarship if you're 5'10" and bio female and still in high school.

Anyway, I'm glad you asked these questions!  Now I don't have to.
