Title: Could I pass like a natural born female?
Post by: ★ Sophia ★ on August 10, 2015, 03:14:20 PM
Hi, it's been a long journey, but I have a good chance of receiving blockers by next year, after talks with my consultant.

I have been very worried recently, if I will ever look like a natural born female. It's made me depressed and I know that I have gone though a lot of the "male puberty"... I'm 16 and I feel that i've always been female, but had to play a "male" character throughout my childhood. Would I have a good pass rate?

I'm sorry about how this may not be very clear.

It's pretty likely given that you're starting in your teens. I knew of someone who started a little later and she was looking pretty good after only a short while of estrogen.

I started my hormones at 17 and im now 30, i have also had them worries throughout my life. But i will say that hormones are amazing in what they do. You just need to give them time and follow your doctors advice on what your body needs.. it is a battle at the beginning, it has been for all of us at some point. But you need to keep strong. You will get there.. every woman looks different. And then differences help us pass socially...

I started at 26 (2 months ago), and I question myself too but Im just gonna sit back and let the hormones take over.  I wouldnt worry starting in teens.

From what little you've said, I'd give you a "yes." The male hormones were the killers for me. I wish I'd never fully gone through puberty. I"m okay now. No one ever questions. And I'm 30 years on from when I started. I usually don't like to talk about that but I think it adds something to my response.
