Are you two years or longer in HRT?

And your breast has a cup B or larger and you get Estradiol injections or have implants
And your breast has a cup B or larger and you are on patches, gel or pills
And your breast has a cup A or smaller and you get Estradiol injections or have implants

Dear sisters,

I am courious to see if the administration route of Estradiol strongly influences the breast growth. My Endocrinologist says there is no evidence that injections will cause a better breast growth and therefor I am still on gel and patches with a cup AA after 15 months. Overall feminization is fine and passing 100%. But still no breast growth :-(

I am no doctor but I have heard that some people respond better to injections than gel/patches. Maybe talk to your endo about that possibility.

34C here. I've been on HRT for 16 months. I started on pills but moved onto patches several months later.
Nobody's perfect ...   I'll never try,
But I promise I'm worth it, if you just open up your eyes,
I don't need a second chance, I need a friend,
Someone who's gonna stand by me right there till the end,
If you want the best of my heart, you've just gotta see the good in me.

Oral estradiol here, with plenty of breast growth but very little feminization above the chest.  Estradiol is definitely getting into my system - E and T levels are just fine.  I'm pretty sure this is just how my body responds to the medication rather than anything to do with the route in which it's delivered, but I could be wrong.

I do sublingual, only 3 months but I'm 34B already.

My experience will differ from others, but six years HRT - five on pills, 1 via injections. I am a modest 36b after six years, but keep in mind, I have a 22.5 BMI which means I don't have excess....ummm skin to measure around, and my mom was a B cup.
I have never worried about being bigger around the chest, but that's me.

I think different people respond differently to the various methods, and it's worth finding out which works best for you.

That said, I started on patches and was a 42C at about four months in, so I figured that method worked for me and haven't changed it! (I had some gynecomastia giving me a head start, to be fair.)

I'm on pills but my endo wants me on patches next script ...more constant levels.started hrt low dose estrogen and progesterone about November .I've got enough growth to protrude/ show in tee shirt though. Just started spiro so I'll see how much difference soon enough.

33 years on Premarin tabs. (since age 17) and with the first 12 of those years combined with Androcur: produced exactly what I`d dreamed; a nice, naturally-rounded cup size C.......Which {at least for now} haven`t yet fallen under the evil pull of gravity! ;)
I still get bouts of 'tingling', which to me, even after all these years; still brings joyous feelings of contentment of 'correctness'.
