Title: Breast growth and fertility
Post by: Hellen on August 21, 2017, 11:34:57 AM
Hey everyone
I am living in a country where I can't be officially a TG unfortunately and I cannot go full time
Anyways I adapted with the situation,
I took spiro and E twice
Every course for 2-3 months with like 6 months gap in between
During the gap my semen became thick again and I was happy with that since I wanted to keep my fertility.
With the second course I got my breasts barely to A cup

I would love to be a full time TG but I can't unfortunately due to country regulations
and for other reasons like my very good job and salary and to get my GF pregnant later''she's not ready yet' '
I thought about moving out abroad but I'll be homeless with no money

My goal currently is :
1- get more feminine body '' B cup would be enough for me I'm not gready lol ''
2- keep my fertility as I want to have biological children later
BTW there is no single sperm bank where I live

I thought going on hormones for 2 months every while would keep
My fertility? As I came of the second course got my semen thick again.. Etc
My plan is to go as a Drag queen from time to time (I'd love to go full time but I can't)

Is it possible to achieve my goal without losing fertility?

Thank you xoxo
Helena

Welcome to Susan's Place.  We often use the expression "Your Mileage May Vary" as a way to indicate that you, as an individual, may have very different results form the next person. 

If what you want are breasts then you might consider breast augmentation surgery and skip HRT.  HRT may eventually cause sterility and you won't know for sure unless you have a series of sperm counts.  This is a good place to find information, opinions, resources and shared experiences.

What I mean in other words..
Have someone tried to be on and off hormones so she can keep fertility
I looked everywhere and found no info about keep going on and off
I think it could work no?

Hi Helena,

Welcome to the site.

That is a good question. I have not heard of people cycling on and off of hormones.  However, we have a large membership here and perhaps someone else can answer you. I plan on moving your topic into our HRT Category. I think you will get more responses from there.

There have been a couple girls here that had been on hormones for a year plus, then stopped for a few months to have kids. As long as your testes are intact there is the possibility of having kids. It is not guaranteed though. Sperm is quite resilient...men that have had the "big snip" as a measure for birth control have had the operation reverse its self over the years and those little suckers came back. So yes it is possible. But not guaranteed though. You will become temporarily sterile or permanently sterile, or still be producing. Its luck of the draw when you start hormones. Your doctor should go over this with you when you go in to talk about hormones.
