Hi all, fairly new around here

. As you all probably already know, biological males produce a bit of estradiol. I'm sure this is a bit of a dumb question but I could not find anything on Google to directly answer this. I've been on HRT for 5 months, and have been off 2 weeks and will be so for another2 months. In such a short period of time, the resurfacing of masculine characteristics has been overwhelming, hair, muscle, mood changes etc... Far more than I recall.
My question: Could it be that estrogen production was halted when my body was receiving more than it was accustomed to from the environment when I was on HRT. And perhaps no longer synthesizes the small amount for estradiol that male bodies produce?
If anybody has had to put off mtf HRT for a set period of time, how was it like in terms of masculine features reappearing during the time phase.
