Hi everyone- I just wanted to share some joyous news. I started anti-androgens in mid-July and added estrogen at the end of July... I'm happy to say I've already seen some noticeable changes.
-My bustline had expanded by a full inch, and my breasts are noticably fuller. They are also starting to ache (which is annoying but still a welcome effect).
-My skin and hair are noticably softer, and my body fat seems to be settling into more traditionally "female" patterns.
-My anxiety and depression have faded. I feel happier, and everyone I interact with has remarked on how much more I smile these days.
-My sex drive is different, but not gone. For the first time I feel like I control it, not vice versa.
There's more, but that's the big stuff. It's so exciting! I also start lazer treatments on my neck later this week, with my face to follow if that goes well. I'm still totally presenting as a man, but finally... Progress! YAY!
