Title: random update :)
Post by: Coatl on August 11, 2009, 12:02:32 PM
Well ive been on hormones for 2 weeks now, still feeling fantastic. Looking forward to the future and working on this transition further. I got estradiol cypionate injection every 2 weeks. spironolacton and medroxypr pills etc. Glad to know in not the first patient of hers of this sort, the doctor was extremely nice and helpful, shes one of those people that wants to make sure everything is done right and you get best possible results. Anywhoo, everything is going fantastic, including the nipple pain and such. I regret telling misty and athena that. :P nothing like poking ambushes ha. So if there's any random facts or stuff i need to know feel free to share or just a congrats or etc.

Yeahh it feels rough already lol.
I'm also like 5' 10 (1/2) so I'm mad that I'm not "petite" like I would want to be (unless HRT suddenly gives you an osteoporosis effect lol...that would be grand.)

Has HRT done much so far for you?

yeah im 5'6. good average point. but to answer its to soon to have done alot but there are a few effects, such as some fat redistribution to hip/butt area, chest hurts, so a sign of growth to come, wooo! and stuff like that. and a small skin softening in a few spots, so for the first 2 weeks im doing amazing :P i got my very unprotected body to thank for that, everything effects me more than it should haha.

When I was 20, I was just learning that transition was possible. A year before that I met out gay people for the first time in my whole life. Don't worry. Your still farther along than I was at that age.
