Introducing: The Guide to Bottom Growth
Quick warning as I will be using anatomical terms, and I will include anatomical diagrams.
- What is bottom growth and what does it look like?
Bottom growth is a common term for the enlarged clitoris, after taking T.
When you take testosterone, it induces growth in the clitoris. The growth can be pretty significant. When it grows, it comes to resemble a cis penis, on a smaller scale. It has a shaft, retractable foreskin, and head.
- The clitoris and the penis- how are they related?
So, when a fetus is growing, they all start out female. The clitoris is the same bit as the glans or "head" of a cis man's penis. The growth into a penis is influenced by testosterone.
- Can I prevent bottom growth?
No. Whether it grows a lot or a little is dependant on genes and your dosage, but it will happen.
It is also irreversible. While some have claimed that it has shrunken after stopping T, this is unusual and may be dependant on your genes.
- What are some other names for bottom growth?
This is all up to you, based on your personal preference. Some people stick to calling it their clit or clitoris, some call it a T-Dick, some call it their bottom growth and some refer to it as a cis man would, using terms like dick, cock, penis, etc.
- How big does it get?
It varies, just like with penis size. On average, most people end up with around 1-2 inches. Some people can end up with more than 3 inches! Like cis penises, they get bigger when aroused.
- Can I stand and pee from it?
No. Your bottom growth is located above the urethra. While some people have enough growth to guide the flow of urine along the bottom of the shaft, this is highly dependant on your personal anatomy and can be really messy!
A surgery like *metoidioplasty can be preformed in conjunction with a urethral lengthening, which would then allow you to stand to pee using your bottom growth.
*Metoidioplasty, or meta, is a type of bottom surgery that releases the bottom growth from the labia minora. It is typically preformed with urethral lengthening, scrotoplasty and a vaginectomy. However, not everyone chooses to have each of these surgeries.

- Can I use it for sex?
Yes. You can preform oral sex on bottom growth, just like with a cis penis. You can use toys on it- vibrators, fleshlights, strokers, etc. Whatever works for you.
- Can I use it for penatrative sex?
Short answer: yes. If you have enough growth, you may be able to penetrate a vagina. However, to my knowledge, anal penetration is not possible with just bottom growth.
- Do I need to clean it?
Yes. This can be done easily by pulling the foreskin back and cleaning any buildup out with a wet q-tip. This area may be sensitive- clean at your own pace.

As always please feel free to ask questions, I will answer to the best of my ability.
Note: It might be possible, with finasteride, to prevent or reduce bottom growth, because the specific kind of hormone your body turns T into that causes bottom growth is the same hormone that causes hair loss, so taking finasteride can potentially prevent bottom growth, since it stops your body from turning T into that hormone. It's not super well documented though!
