I have been taking ev shots since my start on hrt 2 years ago. I recently adjusted my dose downwards after taking your standard hrt regimes via im i take e shots subcut every 5 days. I basically cut my dose in half. Funny thing is since then my girls have perked up big time its like the split dose is doing gangbusters on my titties here. Has anyone had something sinilar happen?
That is great news. I've read elsewhere that cycling E doses causes positive changes. I know that male bodybuilders cycle HGH with great results. There are other reasons for that. They do not want the excess T to convert to E.
The female cycle.

I would definitely check estrogen levels and really only base it off that. Changes happening when they do and how is so random, it's difficult to pinpoint why or how it all happens.
I think if you notice a very clear and distinct pattern for yourself then, great! Keep doing what you're doing if it works for you.
Personally, I know the immediate affect of estrogen is on my emotional state. I know if I'm off by let's say 1 mg, then it can affect my emotions for the worse.
Actually, that's if I take 1mg more than I should. But I do plan on lowering my overall dosage at some point again.

@mako9802 Certainly interesting news that you reported... whatever works for your body you should do. Was your doctor involved by looking at your blood test results and therefore adjusted the dose???
In my case, my Endo kept the same dosages for over 3 years... and it was in the beginning of my 2nd year that big changes happened to my boobs, now a 34C and also my complexion, body hair reduction and softer facial features.
I guess that the old adage here of YMMV is so true... every unique body reacts in it's own way to HRT...

Thanks for sharing your experience.
I will be eager to read more of your updates as you feel comfortable posting them.

I always understood it to be long-term exposure to E that does the trick. Look at how long a young girl continues to develop.
My doctor told me to cut my dosage in half today. So we will see what happens. I have been on injections for 4+ years now. My fingers are crossed that more "development" will happen.
Interesting theory. I skipped two doses yesterday due Halloween excitement (didn't come home after) and breasts were definitely reminding me this morning :D
My endocrinologist cut my E dose almost in half and I've lost a lot of my physical femininity, I've lost my ability to control my temper, my frustration threshold, and my ability to hold my patience.
And I feel depressed most of the time.
She gave me back most of my dysphoria.
YMMV, definitely, but I'm in pain right now.
