Increase and Decrease of the Breast Needing Answers

[morriganali]

I've transition for almost ten months now, estradiol and spironolactone, I was tender, sore and leaking for 8 months out of the ten, I had a little breast development, and my buds were nice and hard, I was happy even when they were sore because, I know it was work. Now going into the 10 month. They not sore at all, and the buds seem to be fading, or breaking down, I don't understand. Are they suppose to do that, but most all it seems as if my breast the little humps that, I had seem to have decreased back to almost no humps at all. Is this suppose to happen, or is my doses to low. I'm 32 years old, and I understand that everybody's body is different when it comes to HRT. Also lastly, I'm a little addicted to masturbation, and I know a lot of people have told me that cumming a lot can mess with the HRT MTF Process, I will be thankful if somebody that might have gone threw this same thing. Can help shed some light on this for me, and what I need to be telling and asking my doctor?

ninja admin edit: no dosages

Howdy.
Keep in mind we don't talk dosages here as replacement for advice from the prescribing professional. Yes that is normal breast development and no, fapping isn't going to mess with hormones significantly.

Yes, it is normal for the buds to fade as growth continues; they're kind of the "seed" phase, and once the breasts are well underway they will diminish. When that happens varies from woman to woman.

I noticed that my breasts seemed to basically go in a cycle : perky, hard, and conical, then softening and spreading out, then nothing changes, then repeat from the beginning. And the "softening" phrase made them LOOK much smaller, because spreading out and not sticking straight forward like missile silos created the optical illusion that they had shrunk. The other thing is that the bigger they are, the less obvious growth will be; it makes sense that you'll notice breasts adding 25% more volume than you will an increase of 5%, and the bigger they are the smaller a percentage an increase will be of the *overall* volume. (In other words, I noticed "zero to A" cup a lot more than I did "C to D", although the bras not fitting told that tale.)

So what's happening may be a combination of them softening, and later growth not being as obvious. Have you tried checking to see if old bras fit the same as they did?  You really can't trust your eyes on this one, especially once you're too concerned to be objective... as if any of us are objective about our boobs.

Way exactly right. My girl size can only be trusted by my hands. They have gone through all those phases. Two and a half years HRT they are now bigger than I can cup with my hands. One has been bigger than the other like a little race to see which pokes out more, then the other. They are still growing. I had to realize that I develop like every young girl and the complete process takes five to seven years.  You are now about a twelve year old girl as far as your boobies. Have patience and grow.

If you want a wonderful website to understand all about breasts with no jaded crap from people with money motives, please check out 007b.com they are the real deal about breast development and breast health for all ages. I hope one day they include a section about development for us too. Regardless it all applies to us. Message them, love them, do your self examinations in the next phases and plan for your very own first mammogram at about two years. Welcome to womanhood my sister. Hug. Joann
