Title: Starting with a B - am I stuck here, or will they get bigger?

So, for whatever reason (I suspect hormonal imbalance), I started my HRT (Yesterday! Yay!) somewhere between a B and an A-cup. I asked my physician and she confirmed that they do appear to be breasts and not just adipose tissue.
But after the joy of trying on a bra for the first time, I began wondering - is this it? Did whatever gave me a head start also show me their maximum natural size? Or will HRT expand on breasts that were already there?
...Or would it be better to ask my doctor?

always ask your doctor...their statements usually trumps ours because they know you..inside and out.
I can offer some opinions.
It depends on your family's genetics. If your mother and sisters have a B cup you will probably be that. If they are C you may get larger. It usually takes 2 years of HRT to see the full realization of breast results (this is why I don't encourage anyone getting Breast Implants until 2 years hrt).
Hope that helps!

Everyone is different and HRT works on an individual basis :) It is always best to consult with your Dr. but most likely you will begin to notice changes after a few months and it generally takes 2 - 5 years for breasts to develop
Patience is the key :)

A size B is pretty healthy to start with. Whether or not it grows much more, be proud of em.
They will bug you when they grow~

When I first started I also had a fat for breasts but after a bit of HRT its became breast tissue, I have no idea why and my doctor said just be glad, I never inquired why it happened so if you ask your doc please tell me what he says.
