I am a 5'1" female, and I am currently considering LL. If I go for it, I would like to do both Femur and Tibia to get around 5" of height. I wonder if other women have gone with the procedure, who their doctor was, the cost, and how has the process/healing been. I was thinking of contacting LiveLifeTaller but I am a bit afraid after reading this forum. Women who completed this procedure, how has life changed for you? Was this experience worth it in the end?

I'm not a woman, but I did see a thread from someone who did:

And, yes, if it's at all financially feasible, avoid LLT and Wanna Be Taller.

There is woman who lengthened with Dr. Assayag in April of 2021. She has a diary on here. Only do this in the US or Europe!

1) Avoid Turkey. You might be ok, you might not. It's not worth the risk.

2) The process for a woman is going to be the same as a man. There are minor differences, like your Q-angle being different than a man, but that is a minor detail that won't impact your final outcome. Go to a reputable surgeon.

3) There are no tangible or objective benefits to receiving limb lengthening as a woman. The only benefits you would potentially receive are entirely mental/in your head/subjective, if any. If you believe the time, money, and pain would still be worth it, then go ahead. It's important to note that when you read patient testimonials, overwhelmingly by men, talking about how great their life is now, you will almost certainly not experience that same level of euphoria or benefit. I am not telling you to not do it as I cannot stop you, I am only warning you.

Obviously there are some reasonable limits to this, but generally speaking shorter women do not suffer because of their height, romantically speaking. If you want to have a chance with a 6'0 guy then adding few inches might be beneficial, however be aware for men your height has a tertiary priority. On the contrary, it makes you "lose access" to certain groups of men, especially when you hit the 5'7 territory. I dont care what the statistics say, I say that the average height for guys nowadays is about 5'9 in the western world, and you being close to this height will make you less desirable to the guy with an average height. Its up to you, but Id say losing a year for that will most definitely wont be worth it.

Disagree with this point. There can certainly be professional reasons for a woman wanting to be taller. A woman who is 5' 10' likely has an easier time in corporate settings than a woman who is 5' 0". Not everything is about dating.

About 20% of cosmetic leg lengthening patients are women. However, it seems like less than 1% of the members here are women, thanks to some weirdo male posters who keep making repulsive and worthless comments about how hopeless their life is because they are short that it has driven them to making suicide attempts in the past, or how their short height is worse than having leukemia or ebola. And you wonder why women stay away from this forum, and why those weirdo male posters are called incels.

That depends on the person, I prefer taller women, other men prefer shorter.

But height is much more than dating, it's about how do you feel about your own body.

Women suffer now because they all made such a big deal out of height that men dont want to be with short women anymore and have midge kids.  Thats called karma.
