So, I'm nearly 9 months in on HRT.  I wish I had more drastic changes, but I guess I'll have to wait?  I don't feel like a whole lot has changed, but people tell me that I have.  I dunno.  I'm just ready to be able to see stark changes.  Sorry, just a lil mini rant. ;)

What changes have you experienced... what were you hoping for or expecting? I know it can seem frustrating at times but give it a chance for things to unfold - hopefully they will. :)

When I see myself all day every day, the gradual changes are almost undetectable.   I never noticed I was putting on or losing weight, losing hair or graying.  The same thing goes for HRT.  It's umm, way more gradual than I'd prefer.  Then I see pictures from months back, and I think "Holy crap!"  The best judges are people you know who haven't seen you in awhile.  I recently ran into someone I hadn't seen in about a year, and he was absolutely blown away.

I just feel like my boobs have gone a lil dormant lately. They aren't tender at all anymore.  It concerns me.

I think a lot of transfolk are their own worst critic.  I see a lot of pics on here from people on HRT and I'm blown away by some of the results.   ;)

I don't know , but I know one post was that they still had growth after 4  years, I've just started so I'm not sure how it works.
