Hello,

I have not gotten taller on T, I started at age 19. Though I do know a man who gained some height in starting at nearly 17.

Doctor measured me a quarter inch taller. But I highly suspect it's just an error :) I've been on T 3 months and am in my 40s.

Before I started T, I was 5'1" I think. Maybe a hair shorter. I started T about a month after my 18th birthday, so I have now been on it 9 months. A few months ago, I noticed my feet had gotten a bit bigger, but I didn't think much of it because I figured it was just normal for some people. However, I did recently discover that I am now 5'3.5". I had hoped to grow but knew it wasn't likely, and I am pleasantly surprised. I hope I can grow another two inches but that may be pushing it. I think the height may be in my torso, as some of my shirts seem to fit shorter than they used to.

contrary to belief, i do think that guys grow whilst on t. not sure if it's better posture (because you're more confident) or if it genuinely makes you grow. i definitely noticed an increase in height, although i did not measure myself :(
