I thought your Adam's apple does not shrink on HRT. It used to be when I shaved I would have to stretch the skin around it so I would not cut myself. But now I can barely see it myself and I shave right over it now. So does it shrink or not? If not then WTF!

As far as I remember, HRT doesn't shrink your Adams apple. It's likely something else that is causing it to look smaller. Hugs

Me either, hopefully that will save some money come time for FFS after a year or so on HRT.

Did your neck get fatter? Or, more filled out?

I don't think so. I'm the same weight since starting HRT. I mean when I feel it. It is there but it is smaller for sure.

It probably does have some, usually limited effect. E shrinks cartilage which is why some of us lose height and shoe sizes.
Trying to take it one day at a time :)

Cartilage shrinking would not be a good sign as this a symptom of low E or T. I get the feeling it has more to do with fat accumulation, increased subcutaneous deposits.
I am not a medical doctor, nor a scientist - opinions expressed by me on the subject of HRT are merely based on my own review of some of the scientific literature over the last decade or so, on anecdotal evidence from women in various discussion forums that I have come across, and my personal experience

On HRT since early 2004
Post-op since late 2005
