Please

How about options for cm's? :D,   Sorry, but I don't speak that lingo, by the way I'm 172cm.

Kind regards

You and me both Sarah B. I think I am about 170cms. 5'7? oops, sorry, did not notice it was for the boys....

Technically I'm 5'2.5"/158.75 cm but I always just round up to 5'3" to make it sound a little better lol.  I wear Tall Men's Shoes (Toto brand) to add 2.8 inches to my daily height. 

I'm definitely insecure about my height.  I don't think it interferes with my passing as much as it used to though.  Now I just get asked how old I am, perceived as a young boy, instead of getting an automatic ma'am/she.

im about 5'5 but hopefully still growing
my height definielty affects me
im constantly measuring myself in comparison to other ppl and it really bothers me when im standing next to a tall person
most of my friends arnt even that tall but still if i could just get 2 more inches i feel like my world would change

Yes Nicky, I'm not alone in this world.

I picked 5'8"  ;D and I also noticed when I was reading  through all the posts I noticed it was mainly males, so lets take a hike and go and play in our own thread!!

Kind regards

5 foot 5 and yes it bothers me.  But nothing short of the rack will fix it so  *shrug*

With the right sneakers, and standing up tall I can boast 5'8"; which isn't too shabby around these parts.

The only time I feel self-conscious about my height (and this was a first) was when I drop by my brother's parties and most of the guys are like athletes/marines/etc who are on average about 6'0". The flip-side to that is for some strange reason I pass almost 100% around my brother's friends, even after making small talk for a while; so I don't end up minding being shorter then.  ;D

I'm about 5' 6 and 5 6.5 with shoes (or about that..)

Measured myself today and I'm 5'6" (without shoes). Always thought I was 5'7" or 5'8" but that was probably just wishful thinking!  :D Sometimes I think an extra inch or two wouldn't go amiss (would be pretty awesome not to have to look up at people all the time), but at least I'm above average height for female-bodied people, so I'll cope. It really depends on who I'm with as to whether I feel short or not...
And don't worry, I didn't vote, I'm just joining in the discussion.  :P

5'1... WAY too short if you ask me! Doesn't help that I usually wear converse or flip flops, which give no extra height! ha! Oh well... my whole family is short, so I have no hope!

Whoops...

I guess this is in the ftm? I'll post my height anyway. I'm very close to 5'8- give or take an 1/8th of an inch so I'm rounding off :D

Didn't vote, but fun fact: be glad you're not in my country since the average height for males is 6'1" here and 5'7" for females. I'm pretty sure there's a beanstack around here somewhere...  8)

On a sidenote; I'm 172 1/2 cm, so around 5'8".

I'm 5'5".

I was wondering, though...

If it was true if once you start T it promotes growth hormones?
So you get taller?

Well, theoretically you slow the rate of ossification because of the lower E levels. But there's little potential for growth past about 16. So maybe an inch or so if you're real lucky, from what I've read.
