Susan's Place Transgender Resources

Hello, I am a few months away from 40, I finally did it!  I went to see an endo.  She prescribed me estradiol via injection weekly.  She said that I don't need T blockers because they would have an advert effect.

I already did my first injection today! 

I wanted to know if anyone else has had a similar Rx, and if so, how long did it take you to start to notice anything, and what?

I want to know how long that I can preset a guy but still take HRT, and what becomes hard to hide at first?

Also, how have you bound your breasts when needed?

My Doctor prescribed a T blocker as part of my HRT regimen, so I don't have experience with starting HRT without it, but even with the blocker I was able to present as a guy for 5 years.  And since my breast development was not that great from HRT, I was able to hide my breasts with a tight undershirt, but everyone does not have the same experience with HRT, it depends on your genetics, age, what you look like when you start treatment, etc.
