Title: Does T make your head larger?
Post by: Harbor on November 24, 2010, 05:56:28 PM
This might be kind of a weird question, but I saw a video on youtube a while back where a guy was talking about a friend of his whose hats didn't fit him anymore since he had started T. So does T make the circumference of your head bigger? I know the structure of your jawbone can change, can the same thing happen to your forehead?

The bone and cartilage thickens on T so you may get a slightly bigger head :)

that makes sense. I'll take even slightly larger as my head is frickin tiny

I never thought about your head getting bigger. Mines 23 inches. I can't find a site that isn't a forum that says what average is.

Yikes.  I already have trouble finding hats that fit.  If my head got any bigger, I'd have to have my hats custom-made.

Oh, man, this is exciting news!  Maybe I'll be able to buy my next bike helmet outside the kiddie section!

Heh, if my head got any bigger ...

Oh you don't mean figuratively?  Physically I haven't noticed a difference but I've always had a large head so a little bit larger does not bother me.

I ordered a hat a few days ago from american eagle, and it came in today. I looked at it, and its huge! I asked my mom is guys heads are bigger then females, and she said no..yet the hat is huge..i guess men do have bigger heads  :laugh:
anyway, once i tried it on, i could see how big it was on me. its just a regular beanie hat.
