So i'm very new to the whole transitioning part of my life right now.
I was wondering, when I do start taking hormones.. what're some stuff the might happen?
I'm really interested in knowing if my butt will grow from hormones, because at this point.. it's a flat screen lol.
ALSO! What's better, pill estrogen, shots, or a patch? Which one works quicker?

Shots worked better for me but it depends on the person You should also know that changes take some time to take place, from several months to several years. Estrogen taken together with progesterone has helped tremendously with butt. I started hormones 12 years ago.

Welcome and I suggest you browse the"Hormone replacement therapy" section of this forum. There is a ton of information about HRT but no matter what YMMV, so there is no certainty on how much certain areas of your body will react to it. It's all about your genetics. Your age is also a factor, the younger the better but it's never too late

Expect to get bootie and thighs and chest. But depending on age and genetics will vary your result. Also if your unlucky like me you might have to deal with stretch mark from your body changing way to fast for the skin to handle lmao. 9 months expect very intense mood changes up and down to.

Mood ups and downs are likely if hormone levels fluctuate too much. I definitely have stretch marks!

Yaaaay! this makes me happy to hear! i'm 20, the woman in my family have VERY large breasts, my mom is a double d, and my grandma is an E... So you can already imagine. When it comes to butt, their butts are whatever, wide, but not much projection out.
I also don't mind the stretch marks because I already have tons of them because i'm a thicker gal.
