Title: Gynecomastia and hormones
Post by: MyNameIsElla on September 22, 2015, 10:12:53 AM
I have natural gynecomastia that's a fact I lived with since I was twelve. I know it's actual gynecomastia and not just fake gynecomastia cause by fat cause I went through a period of rapid weight loss around age 14 or 15 and I went from being about 210 to 145 and my breasts just kept growing. I definitely attribute my breasts as the reason for my dysphoria being so minor that it took til my twenties to recognize that it wasn't just general depression. My breasts also helped me come to terms with being transgender. Every time someone called me ma'am It would make me happy and it was almost always cause of my breasts when it happened in person. As such while I'm not very comfortable showing them off I do consider them a blessing and I have a weird sort of love for them. There about a large c cup to a small d cup and I'm happy with where they are. However I'm gonna start hormones soon and I'm scared of them growing too much. Does anyone have any advice for me.

I also have natural gynecomastia, I'm a small b cup, mine grew when I was 13,I weighed at that time 115-120lbs.this is the other reason I'm not doing hrt,for I got mine the natural way,I look female when I shave the stache, and am female with just a little extras. I do know you will probably end up with dd or you might not grow at all, I know if I took hrt my body would take to it like a duck to water.
