So...I have only been on HRT (MTF) for 7 weeks at most and I am already geting seriously itchy and sore breasts. Isn't 7 weeks kinda early? I was under the impression this wouldn't start for 3-6 months. I do have a very low T level for a natal male so the anti androgens don't have much work to do, the E can do its job easier is my guess.
Or is this a psychosomatic response?
I am not worried just wondering.

YMMV. Sorry but each person is different. I was about a month or two before I noticed anything.
