>>433348767 months is nothing. wait until 2 years, thats when it really starts doing nothing
>>43334876Do you exercise and eat well?
Estrogen insensitivity or hon dosingCall it
>>43334884im asking what to do so i dont get to that point. id rather stop and be miserable than get sunk costed>>43334894eating:not really. sleeping: 1am-8am isnt bad i dont think>>43334897what is hon dosing?
>>43334941if i knew how to avoid this i wouldnt still be manmoding. sorry lol
Many people I've seen get very minor or no results from it but the community still acts like it always works and you just need to be patient. In 5 years your friends will leave and forget about you so as to not confront that cognitive dissonance
>>43334876What changes have you noticed (if any)? Have you gotten your levels checked
>>43334941Exercise and eating well is really important to effective transition. I had the best results when I was exercising more but I got COVID and that really tanked my ability to exercise.
>>43335063my ass is a litle fatter and i do have (very small) mounds for boobs. my torso also got really slim, like anorexia slim. people i know say my skin is softer / face is rounder but i dont see it myself really
>>43335125im trying i promise i tryi feel like it doesnt matter if i do or dont but i still do. maybe stupidly>>43335040im sorry that happened to you
>>43334876"nah don't worry, it starts working at 6 months, then a year, then 2 years, then 5 years. it's not like all passoids passed pre hrt or 6 months in just keep up hope hon!"i hate these people tooserious advice though:get your levels checked, there's such a thing as too high, you want to keep your SHBG between 100-120 otherwise shitty estrogen metabolites can crowd out the receptor. i doubt that this is the case since you were on pills for 5 months but looks in calcium D-glucarate anywaybreast growth gets quieter after the initial growth but you can try herbal supplements for nbe, the evidence is mostly anecdotal but there's no harm in trying them. you could try cycling topical prog and topical e but it may be too early for progwhen you get a year and a half on hrt, maybe longer, start cycling prog and get pioglitazone and gain some weight. if your breast growth is still unsatisfactory look into topical glucocorticoids
>>43334876put a litre of pure progesterone up your ass
>>43334876Listen mtf hrt is more about preventing further change then actually changing shit. Look at the difference between a 19 year old boy and a 25 year old man
I'm the same but I expected the doctors to start me off low and when I switched to shots they don't up you'd dose. It's like a restart and they start you off low again.
>>43336574(op) i went from 4mg/day to .2ml/week of 40g/ml valeriate. i wouldnt say i was restarted low on shots
>>43336360is there a way to get levels checked without being cucked by bloodwork prices?>>43336553speak for yourself>>43336475looking into this
>>43336678>is there a way to get levels checked without being cucked by bloodwork prices?no, but there's some inexpensive tests
>>43334884haha true2 year hrt 20yo, although I genuinely believe gaining weight could really help, is op underweight? probably. gaining weight has been hard for mejust start at 11 idiot lol , or alternatively be born femaleyes it's attention bait
>>43337335>yes it's attention baityou're pretty and you have grabbable hips.>is op underweight? probablyi am a healthy weight but losing gradually since i started college. ive been trying to count calories + eat more than i burn but i kinda stopped both from being depressed. thats probably something im gonna start doing again anyways tho
>>43337553>you're pretty and you have grabbable hips.success, but I haven't changed much at all in 2 years I'd post face but well you know.maybe try gain some after you lose it. ? I want to gain weight
>>43334876For me it took 2 years to get buds , my 3 year my boobs grew, 4 th year on increase with size. No health problems like other people who high dose .
