Title: Hands Feet & T
Post by: Sharky on April 20, 2011, 11:02:12 PM
Is it a guarantee that hands and feet get bigger on T?

my hands feel the same, but my shoes felt tighter and had to get a size up after about 2 months on T

When you say you went up a size do you count half sizes? Like 9 to 9.5 or 9 to 10?

No such thing as a guarantee on hormone effects specifics. Your hands and feet may or may not get bigger. I do think age may play a part in that.

My hands were always large, not sure if they grew. My feet have definitely grown, from about a 7 to a 8.5 in most shoes, though obviously that varies by the type of shoe. My dad's feet kept growing into his 40's.

I kind of like the idea, even though I already wear a 9.5 in mens and I'm only 5'5".

ugh, I have tiny hands and feet, even if they both grew a size they'd be small..and I mean really small

I'm okay with my height, I'm about 5'6", so with those lift shoes I'd do alright height wise, but my hands are a particular annoyance

I haven't noticed any cha nge - though only 3 months on T. However it would suck..I already wear a 10-12 mens depending on the brand.. don't really want to start having to get 13's.

I guess guarantee wasn't the right word to use. There are things you can expect with T, increase in muscle, a change I think everyone gets.

Thats crazy. Were your T levels almost in the normal range before starting T?

I've noticed my fingers have gotten wider and my shoes are way more snug. Just put on a ring a few days ago that fit my middle finger and now it has to go on my ring finger. Thought maybe I was just puffy but tried it today and it still won't fit.

Length-wise though my hands and feet are the same.

My shoe size has went up 2 sizes, my hands are bigger and fingers are longer- and I'm in my 30s. Younger people might have even more potential for growth, but it's not guaranteed.

Naw, they were outside of female ranges, however they weren't into male ranges yet. Just in between the two sexes.
