So ive been on low doses of E for three months with no breast growth and little noticeable affects but I found out my t levels are in the three hundreds today so my doctor finally decided to prescribe an antiandrogen  ;D I guess this s probably the answer as to why ive had NO symptoms of breast growth at all...

I was under the impression anti-t was at the same time as or even before E. I'm pre everything though so I can only go off of what I've read.

Is it accurate for me to assume that my high t levels are why ive had no breast development?

I started estrogen first, so it really differs.  Having lower T should help you accumulate more changes with E.

You will experience quite a lot of new things on "E" AND an anti androgen. You should bud quite soon after being on them. Just get ready for the emotional changes, whew, they can get you as well, I know.   :)

I had breast growth at like 700 T, but I was on spiro and I think it was just swelling for a while and not actual growth, I'm sure yer fine! I know it's hard but you have to be patienttt :)

Free "T" or available "T"?  ???

Total T... didn't have free checked back then. It must have been the spiro causing it, cuz my E was actually on the lower side.  :o

Spiro also blocks T. Maybe you were just real sensitive to E.
