Hi,
I have a question
does leg hairs disappear (that from knees to up) on hrt?
it grow on me like 3 years back and I really hate it.
I'm one month on half dose and "beard" (I had just few hairs under nose) is much thinner a lighter than was, can I expect it also on legs?

Yes, they can change.

However, it may only change after GRS.

My experience has been that my leg hair has thinned and become lighter and finer, within the first six months.

Yes, slowly but surely becoming finer and lighter on HRT. The leg hair (for me) seems to be the last to get lighter, but then I'm a swarthy ex-Jewess ;D.

Mine started falling out and growing slower about 5 months in, but now it's starting to REALLY become less. I have large spots on my legs (3 or 4 square inches a piece) that may have only 3 or 4 strands growing. The hair that is there is noticeably finer.
To dream of the person you would like to be is to waste the person you are.

Mine's growing much slower, but my body is still covered with a forest of jet black hair. A little depressing.

Mine is still growing, too. I'm on hormones for eight years now.

But:
* body hair will become much thinner (legs, arms, torso)
* easier and less painful to pluck out (either by hand or an epilator)
* regrowth cycles will increase (my leg hair needs one full week until new hair starts to sprout again)

This is my experience also. Before, I needed to shave about once every 3 days, now I can go for 2 weeks, and even then it's only because I can feel them, nobody can see them.
