Title: Change in foot size anyone?
Post by: Panzer on June 09, 2011, 04:47:09 PM
I've been on T for almost 5 months and I seem to have gone up a shoe size. I'm wondering if my feet will grow any more than this over the next few years. Anyone else have this experience?

I take a half size bigger than I used to, I think they grew early on, after about yeras they haven't grown any more.

I think it might depend on how old you are.

Mine just got wider... had the initial change and nothing since.  Been on T three plus years.

In 11 months on T, my feet have grown from a size 6 (men's) to a size 8 (men's). :P Haven't noticed an change in width though. So I don't know maybe they will grow more, I've never had big feet and I'm short so this was a weird foot growth spurt.

Wow this is promising, I was under the impression that nothing really grows on T, is it just the layout of the foot that's changing or actual bones?

I have tiny hands and tiny feet, I hope they change.

What about for people that stop growing? I'm 25 and well past growing.

Have anyone's hands grown?  I have stubbly fingers, so that'd be nice.  It seems like they would change similarly to the feet.

I'm pretty sure you're right. Testosterone fuses the growth plates if they've not fused already. "Growth" is usually accountable to bone and cartilage thickening.
Saying that, I know a guy who started T when he was 14 and continued to grow to over 6ft.

My shoe size hasn't changed at all, but my hands at feet and definitely thicker and generally more masculine looking :)

I hadn't noticed until my boss mentioned that my arms had got thicker. The fact that my wrists have always been so thin I can wrap my fingers round them - and still can - just goes to show they have ^_^ On top of that, I have this lovely silver dragon ring that I bought years ago, but had to wrap tape round the bottom before it would fit. Tried taking off the tape recently and trying it on again - fits like a dream ;D
