Jay wrong! Your epithelial tissue has already stopped growing. Thats crazy, and there are well known side effects. i know as i now have in operatable cancerous tumor of the spinal cord. Been on Depo Testosterone shots, since my 20's, and it causes anger, rage, acne out breaks, weight gain, high blood pressure, mooning of the face, Testicle shrinkage, Which I lost both of mine. Hair loss, thickining of the skin, and cancer of the liver. Is it worth it now? Thats the rest of the story! Sad but true.Good Luck son. Do the right thing, I didn't have a choice because of an accident that caused me to have to have penis re-attachment, and many surgeries on the penis, testicle removal, and surgery for weight loss.

NO!! dont take that thing! dude i dont know if it will help u with ur hight or not..but i certainly do know that there are severe side effects..please dont ask for advice on here someone might give u the wrong advice...ask ur doctor dude!

hay dude its not true ,our height is determind by our crapshit genes ,5'5 is ok man besides u still have 1 more year ,if iwas u ill cut on evrything and eat healthy food and drink nothin but milk trust me it works.

Hormones control every bodily function you experience. Do not play with hormones. MY FIANCE IS 5,6 AT 43 YRS OLD and guess what!!! Women think he's a dream. Just take it easy on yourself ok?

Testosterone stops growth. It causes the bone epiphyses to fuse more quickly. It also stops the pituitary from its secretion and results in shrunken testicles. It is also possible that it shuts off the pituitary permanently after you take it for awhile. Then your voice gets higher, etc.

Not true. I had a BF who was only 5'3" and I swear he had enough testosterone for 10 guys!

Don't worry, lots of us girls thing shorter guys are hot Hot HOT! And yummy!

true..testosterone helps in growth But at the same time it causes early closure of the epiphysis (the one responsible for growth)..so taking it wont help
