Hey all,
So i've been on E and Spiro for 3 weeks. I've done heaps of research and I've not been expecting any changes yet.
However,
I have noticed that the growth rate of my chest and leg hair has already slowed dramatically.I was shaving those areas almost every other day, every 3rd day at a push. Now I'm at just under once a week.
Has anyone else had this happen so quickly?
Fingers crossed it bodes well for the rest of my transition ;D

Welcome to Susan's Nikki
That progress sounds good as body hair growth is reduced by HRT. From what other say changes on E happen faster than you would expect. Breast growth should be already underway.
I'm not on HRT yet but have attacked my hair with laser and I have not had to shave it since the sessions 2 months ago. Hurts a bit though but worth it. ;D
How about tell us about yourself in the intro page when you get a chance.
We don't bite much except for Cindy so watch her. ;D
Enjoy posting and asking questions as well as joining in the fun.

This happened to me quite quickly as well. I noticed smoother skin and body hair reduction within the first week.
I'm just 3 months in now and almost all my course hair is gone and my chest hair is almost completely gone except a couple small patches.

So it works that quickly!? Yay! I am excited, I am 22 and I get my referral to the endo in 2 weeks. I have soft, but dark hair growing on my tummy and some on my chest.

Just recently started spiro and I can't wait to see these changes as well.
