Yeah, 5’9” is a good height.  It won’t give you any height-related positives (like EXTRA attention from women or advantage socially) but literally nobody will call you short except tall insecure dudes and tall (or super short) women with issues.  As someone currently 5’9” in the USA, you’re in for a happy life when you go from below 5’9 to 5’9.  Wish I were happy at that height already but the grass is always greener, etc.  at the very least you’ll likely have great proportions at 5’9 with a +1 ape index, I’m +3 ape index and people comment that I have very long arms IRL.  Most guys I workout with have -1 to +2 ape indices and are all 5’6 to 6’2, so you’ll look totally normal I bet.

At the end of the day I would rather gain 3 inches and have not the best proportions then stay at my current height. Most people irl won’t be over examining your proportions unless they really stick out like a -4 inch ape index or legs a lot longer than torso.

That is reasonable. To each his own. To me, an extra .5 or 1 inch above the average is not worth the potential complication , pain, and decrease in athletics, and loss of proportionality.

Yeah safety should always be the number 1 priority with this surgery.
