I'm gonna get a check up with my pedatrition to see how much more I'm gonna grow, & then I'm gonna ask to get a xray to see if my growth plates are capped. If they aren'tcapped & I decide to ask my mom about starting T, will T stunt my growth or help me grow? I really wanna be 5'8.. at least 5'7.
I'm 15 (bday just passed oct 1st) & 5'3 at the moment. My dad is 6'0 my mom is 5'4.
It might help with growth. I know that FTMs who start before they've had their female puberty often grow to be significantly taller than the majority of us, but it's hard to say if that's genetics or hormones.
I know that my growth stopped at age 12. -_- Got stuck at 5'4" and T (started at age 23) did nothing to help that.
Not an answer to your question but I'm pretty sure I saw forum rules that minors are prohibited from writing their age, so you may want to edit your post to remove yours.

It's the puberty blocking hormones taken by (pre puberty) MTF that makes them grow unusually tall, because the growth plates need sex hormones to cap.
So I guess FTM will grow unusually tall as well when taking puberty blocking hormones.
