If you were taking a DHT blocker, it's probably one of the things that take the longest to recover from. With adequate levels of E, most of us don't need a DHT blocker and since it can cause issues with depression and cognition, it may be something you want to avoid. You should start feeling the HRT in a week or so.

It didn't take too long for everything to get back to 'normal'.  I felt better almost immediately and breast soreness returned within 2 weeks.  In a month I think that the signs of the break in hormones (4 months) had disappeared.

Safe travels
