Hi well, 30YO MTF here.

I've been doing supervised HRT for more than a year, taking Androcur , Ciproterone (birth control pills,) and estradiol (the blue M&M like pill).

I'm undergoing breast implant surgery in about a month and my endo recommended I stop. Literally stop. HRT for a month, then restart after surgery. I feel this can be kinda drastic and would like to know a bit more on any girl who has had experience with surgery whilst under HRT or any experience with sudden stops on treatment.

Other than that, I finally had the guts to register at susan's! so, well. Hope it becomes a longlasting relationship.

Many hugs and cheers, would appreciate -any- input. <3

As I understand it, the only problem is the estrogen is a clotting risk, and during and after surgery, the immobility + E can be dangerous. Before my SRS, they told me to go off two weeks prior. I went a week before only figuring the clotting factor would be out of my system by then, with no issues. I also recommend avoiding your E dose the night before longer plane flights for the same reason.

you might get a little moody or have hot flashes like i did but it will be ok

Thanks, everyone.

I'm having BA on thursday, yeah in like 3 days! Anyway, My BA doctor didn't say anything about quitting E.
When I had FFS I had to go off of it for 2 weeks before and one week after. I got moody, my T came back and i lost a lot of the very little breast tissue I had!
