Title: Almost a Month!
Post by: drvotion86 on April 29, 2011, 11:27:22 AM
Hello Rene here again, been so busy with work and sleep never do much of anything else. So yesterday i noticed a little tenderness in my chest. My chest has gotten a little bit bigger enough for everyone to notice. I feel they look like man boobs at the moment lol. 

Ok I worry about my weight alot so i've been trying to watch what i eat and walk a little bit more since i sit at work all day. Well i pretty much eat about the same just walk everyday for atleast an hr. The other day i weighed myself on my friends wii, I weigh 152 1/2 lbs =), lost about 5 lbs since ive been on hormones. My shape around my mid section has somewhat changed, butt getting a little bit bigger, also my best girl friend says my face is filling in but i havent noticed much change.

All in all i feel a bit more confident about myself, I cant wait for more changes to happen. I hope one day i can pass full time. I think i worry too much keep thinking ill always look like a boy, but probably wont. Need to get some sense in me, it's amazing how much ppl change. Lots of love Rene! <3

Hey :)

I will be one month on hormones tomorrow but I havn't really noticed many changes.. only noticed the past couple of days my nipples have gone a little bigger and I can cry a lot easier, which helps me deal with my emotions a lot better!

Will be interesting to see how we both change since we started the same time :)

You're not going to look like a boy forever. I promise you that. Give yourself some time, let your hair grow, you'll transition just fine.

This might be one of the rare instances being older (I'm almost 53) makes it acceptable to have "moobs" as the public calls them.  I told co-workers my breast growth was the result of prostate medications (technically true, since I was taking Avodart for a few months) I was taking.  Of course, anti-androgens and estrogen are technically prostate medications, too. ;)

Wow, so many in the one-month club (me, too!).  I noticed my nipples after about a week or two, they were standing at attention, even the areolae, and I was a LOT more sensitive all over!  Now at about a month, hardness is a thing of the past, more or less, but I enjoy myself a lot more, if that makes any sense.  I measured my chest this morning, and I'm technically a 40AA.  I "think" a month ago I would have been slightly smaller than a AA cup.  The shape of my breasts has changed a bit, they seem a bit fuller.  I cry a lot more easily.  But I feel more serene, more alert, and more wonderful.
