Title: Does mtf hrt get rid of the v-line on your stomach?
Post by: Emily_90 on February 06, 2014, 06:11:14 PM
I have a v-line on my stomach from testosterone, that kind of v shape that goes down to your private area. People keep calling me male because I have it.. It isn't extremely harsh.. But I wish it would go away. Will estrogen get rid of the v-line? Or am I stuck with it forever?  :embarrassed:

Yes. Time, destroyer of all things. Or in your case, HRT and Time, destroyer of the V line. But don't be glum, chum, SRS returns the V line, just a bit lower and less pronounced.

Thank you very much. I was very worried and put down about this issue.

I was wondering about body hair, and this is very rude of me I know but does anyone have/know of photos of a person floating around with hair on their upper body (chest/tummy) and after photos of just being on HRT to see the reduction (no laser or anything). I would love to see the results as I have a lot soft dark tummy hair and a clump of "manly" chest hair towards the centre of my chest. A little on my upper back near the shoulders, but again its not coarse hair its just soft dark hair much like a guys hairy arms I suppose but on my body! I do not even have hairy arms or legs lol... I am mostly asking as I will get laser one year on it, but before I save for it is it going to be worth it if it all vanishes pretty much.

Also how many treatments is normal for shoulders/back tummy?

I walked away from my computer to wash up for the day and as I was washing my makeup off the light clicked. "Ahhhh now I get it... *chuckle*." Cute!

I never had a v-line until December last year. Literally, it just appeared within the space of three weeks. Before then, my stomach had muscles but was completely flat. What is above the v-line? Muscle or fat?

I'm totally confused lol. I never was even aware of this whole V line thing, but I think I get what is now?

I didn't have this pre-HRT or now on HRT... so I'm not sure. The closest thing I notice to this is a very slight petrusion of my tummy area sometimes, but there isn't a visible V or anything. Now I'm googling it and lots of hot guys are coming up :D.

It typically shows up if you have a very low body fat percentage, either from being underweight or being muscular.
