Can taking testorone at a young or older age change the way your facial structure is or make you taller?

Possibly, but it can also cause you to grow breasts.Can taking testorone at a young or older age change the way your facial structure is or make you taller?
Actually testosterone metabolizes into estrogen. So too much can cause elevated levels of estrogen in your blood stream which can lead to gynecomastia (male breasts). The way your face is, is the way it will always be. Your structure is preset because of genetics. Your height has nothing to do with testosterone, it also has to do with genetics. You grow because of HGH or human growth hormone, not because of testosterone.Can taking testorone at a young or older age change the way your facial structure is or make you taller?
not once you are older but if you take it when you are young and particularly at the beginning of puberty it will affect you greatly. some good and some bad, so I wouldn't suggest it. depending on how you are getting it in your system and what stage of development it could cause serious health problems and severe organ damage.
Dude above me that's estrogen not testosterone.





and for the asker: I don't know why don't you go to your doctor and ask him.
In the male body, testosterone is the most important sex hormone. Testosterone is responsible for development of male characteristics such as body and facial hair, muscle growth and strength, and a deep voice. Normal levels of testosterone also influence the production of sperm, promote sexual function and promote sex drive.





We now know that some men's bodies do not make enough testosterone. These men may experience uncomfortable and sometimes distressing symptoms. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) estimates that 4 to 5 million American men may suffer from low testosterone, but only 5 percent are currently treated.





As men get older, the ability to produce testosterone declines. This decrease in testosterone production is sometimes referred to as andropause or “male menopause.” If testosterone levels fall below the normal range some typical symptoms may include:





In addition to age-related low testosterone, there are certain medical conditions that can cause low testosterone. These medical conditions can begin in youth or in adulthood, and can affect testosterone levels throughout a man’s life. Some of these conditions are associated with the testicles, pituitary gland and/or hypothalamus (a part of the brain that controls many of the body’s glands). Occasionally, the problem can be genetic.





In younger men, low testosterone production may reduce the development of body and facial hair. Muscle mass and genitals may not develop normally, and younger men’s voices may fail to deepen.
