I started HRT in late August. I have had some growth in the breasts up to a 38B and some body hair not growing back after removal. Since December I haven't noticed any other changes. This is frustrating me. My facial hair is still killing me to get removed. I was told I have the coarsest gray hair that my electrolgist has encountered. So a word of advice, get rid of the beard before the gray comes in.

It takes time girl. HRT major changes can take up 10 years or more. They become a lot more subtle over time....the main ones tend to happen within the first year so they are more noticable but the rest are very slow. 38B in 7 months is great! I'm only a 36A after 15 months.

Just as Jerica said, and as we always say in these threads, it takes time! It takes years for cis women to grow their breasts to full potential, did you think yours would go any faster? Just be glad you have a B at 7 months, many of us don't reach that until a couple of years at least and some never do.

It probably helped that I had already "A"s as a male. I know it takes time. I am just feeling a bit down about it.

We all get down at times. You'll get through this.
