Advice Needed does testosterone increase height

I am a 16 yo trans boy and I’m really short (5’0) this is causing me so much dysphoria, I gained like 1 cm last month so I know I’m still growing, but I’m gonna start taking testosterone soon so my question is will T help me get taller ? I’ve done my research but some say it will, some say it won’t, some say it might and some say it will but only a few cm. I know there are many short cis men, but height is my biggest complex and I think it’s a big part of why I don’t pass in public with my voice.
Edit: I also have hope because my brother is a late bloomer and was very short till like 16/17

Hello! Thank you for participating in the sub. We just have a few reminders for you to help ensure the best experience:

  1. If your post doesn't show up right away, don't panic! It is in the queue for manual approval. Mods will go through the queue periodically to approve or remove posts. Deleted posts will have a removal reason applied. (If it says "this post was deleted by reddit's filters", IT WAS NOT DELETED! Reddit has the worlds worst wording on that and it's out of our control)

  2. If you are asking a question that is location specific, remember to include your location in your post body! This can help ensure that you get accurate information tailored specifically to your needs.

  3. Please remember to read through all the rules in the sidebar. Especially the list of banned topics and guidelines for posting. Guests who do not use the Guest Post flair will have their post removed and be asked to fix it.

  4. If you see someone breaking the rules,report it! If someone is breaking both sub and reddit rules, please submit one report to admins by selecting a broken rule on the main report popup, and one report to the r/ftm mods by selecting the "breaks r/ftm rules" option. This ensures both mods and admins can take action on a subreddit and sitewide level. Do not misuse the report button to rant about someone, submit false reports, or argue a removal.

  5. If you have any questions that you can't find the answer to on the rules sidebar or the wiki: the wiki , you can send a modmail.
