Oh hi sis. Long time, no update here. Well now that you ask, I might as well go back to the original topic of this thread and actually talk about my boobs
. I started progesterone 2 months ago via injections (adding it to my estradiol valerate) and I've seen a few changes:
1. Boobs are hurting again and I'm positive they look a bit plumper so they're definitely growing.
2. I'm hungry ALL THE TIME! This is probably the first time since I've been on hormones (which is a year and a half now) that I crave food all the time...Even when I think I'm full, it seems like half an hour later my body is ready to eat again. I really like this because I'm naturally thin and want more curves and seems like my body is asking for fat to store it in the feminine places. I've also gotten compliments from my girlfriends lately telling me that my jeans look cuter and my butt looks nicer... So I guess I'm filling up
I've gained 10 pounds in the past 2 months and want to gain another 10, so I'm eating anything I want and I quit the gym.
3. My nails went from being super brittle to being strong again. I recently realized this...I went to get my nails done and the girl doing it was like "wow you got strong nails!" she caught me completely by surprise because the last 6-8 months my nails were anything but strong...they were breaking all the time! I couldn't even keep them at a decent length. So after she said that, I realized my nails are longer than usual and not breaking at all! I didn't even know progesterone could do that? Can someone confirm if that's the case?
4. I seem to be more stable when it comes to crying. I went from not being able to cry when I was pre HRT, to crying about absolutely anything while on HRT, and now it seems like I'm right in the middle, still way more sensitive than before HRT but not on the verge of crying about silly stuff. It seems to work differently now, like not everything makes me cry, but when something does, it's like a huge door was open and it's super intense and I let it all out.
5. I seem to be getting a little bit of acne on my face? Nothing outrageous, just really small zits that you can barely see, but my skin was 100% clear before this. Now I don't know if this is a product of progesterone or just the fact that I've been eating a lot more chocolate lately. In any case, it's another signal that my body is going through changes and I like it!
That's all I have to report for today
. Progesterone users, if you can confirm/deny some of my suspicions I would greatly appreciate it.
