Title: Took my first estrogen pill today.... :D

I just took my first Premarin tablet a few hours ago, after being on Spiro for two weeks. I've been waiting for HRT for so long that It feels almost surreal that I'm finally getting going with it!

I got a good laugh reading the instructions that came with the pills:

Possible negative side effects:  May cause increase In breast size.


Negative? haha! I say bring on the boob growth! :D

Looking forward to seeing changes happen... though patience has never been my greatest quality. At least I'm in the door now, and that alone makes me feel much more at ease. :)

Oh, those terrible, nagging side effects.  :D

"Breast tenderness, swelling, and enlargement"

Yeah, well, I guess if I absolutely have to endure this . . .  ::)
