Ok so this might sound weird but my face has been feeling a little funny this past week and I keep feeling as if there is a weird tension starting with the end of my jaw to all around my cheeks on my face. I was wondering if this funny tension I feel could just be the estrogen changing my face at last?
So my question is for those who've been on HRT for a good while. Did you feel your face as it was changing? The fat redistributing? Or is this just something in my head and I am just stressing and thats the tension I've been feeling around my face? I feel like it could be because of the hormones but I'm not sure if this is a normal occurence! Please tell me if you literally felt your face changing lol thank you sistas!

I haven't felt anything but I have seen changes. More noticeable cheek bones, face getting slimmer.

Hmm, I'll have to pay a little closer attention. I'd think I would have noticed that, how ever the "funny tension" in my chest has been by far the most noticable thing so far and is rather distracting at times. The Chi Massage helps though! :angel:

I've been on hormones 8 weeks now. The only feelings I've noticed in my face I've attributed to weekly electrolysis sessions. :P I haven't really noticed any changes in my appearance, drat it.
The tenderness of the area around my nipples is very noticeable, especially when I hop in the shower or when I roll over in bed. But in a way I find that comforting because it means progress. :)
