how long on hrt until i get decent looking tiddies?
>>41508144Years. I'm less than a year in and have A cups. I've heard it's not uncommon to have B cups by 18 months.
>>41508144weight gain is more important.
>>41508159doesn't sound too bad.>>41508163but when should i start gaining? currently been on hrt for a month. and like how fast should i gain? and how much? i'm 18 bmi rn.
>>415081447 years still cant fill an a cup. make sure yyou eat (i didnt)
>>41508198tbf i think i fucked things over for myself a bit, went up to 6mg oral too quickly + on a high dose of cypro (by todays standards) from the get go + dropped to 4mg after a prolactinoma scare + started prog earlier this year (late!)
>>41508217uhm what's wrong with that dose? because i'm currently on 6mg oral with 12.5 mg cypro rn. this is OP.
>>41508144It depends on what you consider "good lookin". I'm assuming you want something between C and D cups. In that case, and assuming that you also got the genetics to allow a breast this size, it can take anything from like 2 years to 8 years (just like cis girl puberty). But make sure yo eat wel, count calories, calculate your bmr
>>41508238NTA. That's a fine dose, but typically people start on a low dose and go up to 6, like 2mg, then 4mg, then 6mg. I don't know if that's really necessary, though. Plus even on 12.5mg cypro daily, I had high prolactin levels, so make sure to monitor that.>>41508175Probably safe to gain more than 18 BMI right now, but I'd say weight cycling is more worth it after at least a few months and you have noticeable hard breast tissue.
>>41508243by good looking i just meant something that resembles a breast, rather than a deformation, even if pretty small.
>>41508238i think being too high e early on is detrimental. if i could do it again id start with 4mg first 6 months at least, im not well informed though
>>415081443 to 5 years is what it took for me. Don't believe the "2 year timelines" you find online.
>>41508144most people don't
>>41508263I mean, unless you have some kind of illness, it should grow fine. I don't even know how it would look deformed.
>>41508264I'm on 3mg, 18 months in, and my levels are very high. I also use t blockers, I feel suprised that people will start with doses as high as 6mg
>>41508312i think a lot of it comes from fear of being hondosed
>>41508312It probably depends on the person. My levels were low on 4mg and t blockers.
>>41508312>>41508336i mean yeah i figured i'd rather start with too high of a dose rather than a too low one. any proven downsides of a high dose? except for maybe it might not be great for your liver and stuff i guess?
>>41508339100%, but also I think there is a bunch of people who straight up don't know what they are doing, sometimes even taking substances that are not even supposed to be taken as hrt. It's a mess out there>>41508348Not only you can cause a lot of health issues on yourself (if you don't test your levels and don't do other exams like bone density stuff) it can actually delay your transition. When you have way too high levels of estradiol in your body, it begins to convert that into testosterone. The limit of estradiol level you should have depends on your genetics and body, but on average, no one needs more than 400 pg/ml to transition

>>41508480This. People be like "I don't see the problem with starting with high doses" but like, how are you supposed to SEE the problem if you never searched it up.
>>41508413>>41508480oh :( should i go down to like 4mg a day? or is 6mg probably fine? i haven't done a test yet so idk what my levels are, when i do i can adjust based on that.
>>41508536DO THE FUCKING TESTS HOLY SHIT. Why everyone in this board so stupid?
>>41508413>When you have way too high levels of estradiol in your body, it begins to convert that into testosterone. That's not true. Too high levels of testosterone become estrogen but not the other way around.
>>41508547i'm going to :( i just need an estimated dose until then.
>>41508536are you taking orally or sublingually?
>>41508144i have cone tits at 15 months in, so longer than that
>>41508578if you have cone tits you have cone tits, it's a specific type of development and it doesn't just suddenly become the normal development pattern, you're stuck with them
>>41508144mine looked pretty cute by month 6 of hrt
>>41508576i used to take sublingually but then a sore spot under my tongue formed, and i'm not sure if it was the pills or something else but i just started swallowing them after that.
>>41508563>08563▶>>>41508413 (You)You are actually 100% on this one. I was basing myself on outdated stuff. The risks of high doses are all the health issues everyone knows about (blood clots, heart problems,etc...)
>>41508668id just stick to 4mg and get that blood test
>>41508480oh, i fucked my self LMAO. ive been taking gigadoses for a year>>41508606thats just horse shit, cis girls have cone tits at the beginning of puberty, its literally an unavoidable step of breast development. the lower side fills in only later
