Why do I feel more masculine AFTER starting hrt? Anonymous 10/04/25(Sat)23:33:37 No.41263501 Archived

I've been told I have a fairly feminine appearance, and I would have agreed with this statement up until two weeks ago when I finally, actually started HRT. Now every time I look in the mirror I can only notice my 5 o'clock and every slightly masculine feature about my body and it makes me want to rope. Is this normal or like wtf is going on?

also doesn't help that I lost my voice due to a throat infection a week ago so now my voice is very bassy and I can't hit a falsetto when I sing like I could before. Makes my dysphoria even worse.

You're actually trying to fix things up now so every shitty detail pops up to you even more in contrast
