Why call someone a midget on a forum where everyone is facing difficulties about their height? Cmon man. + she's a woman and many men like short women so GTFO

It's sarcasm, the point being is that 5'4 isn't short for an adult woman but rather average.

I think you should get it. If you believe your height dysphoria wont go away why waste time. Do your research know what you'll be up against and do it. You will have the best chance to recover at a younger age, you got your parents support so in my opinion you're set up to succeed and hopefully will be happy like many other patients on here who documented that this was life changing for them and dont regret it at all. Just make sure if you go through with it you choose a reliable doctor. That'll probably be the most important factor in all this.

I understood your point. However, the op is only 15 years old. If I were the op and finally decided to do it, probably the better I wait for another two decades when this surgery becomes super safe and zero pain. That's a better approach right?

HGH shots cost more than this surgery and no reputable doctor will prescribe HGH  for a 5'4 girl. The cost of HGH is about $52K an inch.  A doctor can check to see if her growth plates are open. Most women are done by 15 but not all.  The average LL doctor would not do it if her plates were open.  Many 5'9" men are doing this which is almost the equivalent of  a 5'4" woman.  So if you feel the same at 18 and your parents support it, it is your decision and I understand your desire to be taller. Though this is not easy, I feel it is totally worth it.

HGH shots are more money, but less painful right?

This is a forum for positive contributions and support  not insulting and hurting people. You are at the same time insulting the person and all those who suffer from dwarfism. It's not acceptable, even if you are a bitter, sad person today.
