Excuse me if this has already been posted, I just want some advice, also get this off my chest :)

So next month draws 4 month mark on hrt, taking both T & E. I am not the hairiest individual. I suppose the only real area is my face. I shave and you can see the shadow(I despise this) I would like to start laser soon. Any advice on what I should expect? Also when did you start seeing results from this? I understand there's a 6-8 week period with each session.

Any advice would be appreciated

:)

I asked my doctor, he was fine with this.
small dosages for both
but the results are greater than I expected

My blood levels are good
and I keep an eye on it, constantly

Why are you taking both T & E?????

second this, why would you take Testosterone (assuming that's what T stands for) with MtF HRT...??? ???

As for laser you will notice the most change after about 5-6 sessions and in between it will be patchy and slow growing.

Using the wrong pronoun means 'I don't recognize you as who you are.' It means 'I think you're confused, delusional, or mentally I'll.'. It means 'you're not important enough for me to acknowledge your struggle.'"

My bad TB ;)

Awesome.. I have had laser done once in the past, pre hormones though..

It isn't coarse, so I'm hoping for the great results.

I noticed results from LHR from the first session. I'm a rather hirsute individual with some sasquatch genes thrown in for good measure, but after my first session I noticed a difference in my facial hair, less coarse with light patchiness. After 4 sessions the only place on my face that grows a shadow is the goatee region, and hopefully that will be gone after the next two.

Things to be wary of- stay out of the sun for a few days after your session. Your skin is more sensitive to bright lights after a treatment and there are risks of permanent scarring if you're out in direct light. Also, don't be surprised if you break out a little bit after a session. It's not due to anything on your part, it's your hair follicles pushing out of your face. Be happy, they won't be coming back for a long time (if ever).
