Thanks all.
I can give my own update now. I bought my prescription directly in the doctor's office and opted for Estrogel. My doctor wasn't keen on the tablets, and I didn't fancy wearing a patch every day for the rest of my life. I took my first dose right then and there in the office as I couldn't wait another second. That was nine days ago, counting today, and I wasn't expecting miracles, but I was expecting more emotional changes than I've had. I haven't had any feelings of euphoria or sudden increase in the senses as other people have reported. I am happier knowing that I'm on the right path, and knowing that if I look in the mirror something MIGHT have changed.
Physically it's still early days of course, but I have noticed the nipples getting bigger and 'puffier' as someone described it earlier in this thread. I'm also certain my body hair is growing ever so slighly slower. I don't have much but what does grow grows fast so I have to shave it daily. Although that's still the case, it looks like it has started to low down its pace.
Thanks for all your comments.
Siobhan.
