a ski pole can be used for a man or woman there is no difference some may be dircted to a male or femal aduence but you can use either
Poles are made for your height. The easiest thing to do is to go into your local shop grab a pair of poles and to measure them, turn them upside down so the basket near the tip is point up. Wrap your hand around the tip above the basket. Your arm should be at a 90 degree angle, or close to that.

How do ski poles help you balance?

Ski poles only help you balance when you are a beginner.
Beginners who rely on their ski poles for balance end up learning
some bad habits of form, some ski areas won't even give students
poles until they're an intermediate skier! Ski poles are more about
rhythm, and when you're in difficult terrain, like moguls, they
help you with unweighting. (They are also very handy for unhooking
bindings and for pointing to things in the distance ;-) ) If you
are relying on your poles for balance, or dragging them while you
ski because that makes you feel secure, you might want to try
skiing without them for awhile. You'll develop balance much faster
without them.
