Hi everyone,
I'm on a very high dosage of injection Estrogen and pretty standard in Spiro. Although it's not the highest dosage possible Spiro wise.
It's been 6 months today and I still have very little noticeable breast development. I have buds and larger aeriola/nipples and my boobs hurt a lot but they still haven't filled in at all. They're very cone shaped still and can barely be seen even at a profile/side view. I'm very skinny naturally only 118 pounds and a BMI of 20.
I've even tried to eat tons of fatty foods to no avail.
I' know YMMV but the average time in most of my friends and girls' posts here are about 6-7 months for noticeable breast growth. Is it because I'm asian and skinny? I'm just stumped and so is my doctor.

Hi baby!
If you have buds and some pain/itchy feeling they are growing, just be patient. Your doctor will find out what is wrong if anything. Rome wasn't built in a day, they will come. I know how hard the wait is though. PM if you need to cry, vent or anything else. Hang in there sister you always have us for support. BIG HUG! :)

Have blood levels checked is all I can say.
