I've been searching through the site and I've encountered some threads about MtFs experiencing a tilt of the pelvis to the female position, even in late transitioners. I'm 24. I started hrt in late April (when i was 23) and I'm hoping my pelvis shifts to the girl position. When I pull my taunt around my body I notice I am starting to have more of an hourglass figure but my pelvis is still in the male position and it still bothers me and I don't want to have to undergo any surgery.
I know hrt doesn't usually have an effect on bone structure unless you've began hrt prepuberty but I wonder how many of you have had your pelvic tilt on hrt?
It's possible I went through it (I started about 5 months after my 18th birthday.) it started happening a slow bit around month three,month five, and seven. (On month 10 now.) the reason why I knew is the difference in my hips of my before and after. It was a pain when I was experiencing it was like a aching pain. It's funny a few girls asked me about that because they said they had similar pains through puberty. (They didn't know what happens with trans women in transition ect so I had fun explaining.)
Also I don't know how your posture is but that also assisted my figure greatly because I used to walk around with my pelvis towards the front. I made it go back a bit so it isn't forced up front. :3 I'm having troubles explaining that. :3 lol
mine did but I also sort of had one prehrt, it just became more dramatic after starting hrt. I've always had a wide pelvis so idk my input probably isn't very useful :-X
I started at 32, and I definitely have. I don't think it's anything magic, though; I *can* pull my pelvis back into a "male" position if I try hard enough, it's just uncomfortable and as soon as I relax it tilts back. Basically, having a butt and thighs has just shifted the way I naturally stand.
Could someone please explain to me which direction is the pelvis supposed to tilt on HRT? Top-forward bottom-backward or top-backward bottom-forward? Or if you prefer, butt-up or butt-down?
no medical evidence of change on pelvis structure in MTF of any age exist...
Mine were always slightly tilted. Didn't notice anything yet though.
There still needs to be a ton of medical research done for us though but mine definitely did change.

I was going to ask the same question lol.
I can tell you that something happened without my making any effort where when I am standing there is seems feminine, where before it didn't. I have no idea if it has anything to do with my pelvis, I never really have noticed how people's pelvises tilt, let alone mine.
