I stopped HRT for personal reasons; however,  giving the logistics of my transition ($, time, family, work)...I scaled back my regimen and resumed my HRT on Estrogen only. I know changes will be less evident at this rate..my question is: is there anyone here on Estrogen only who saw changes in their bodies (significant or not)?

I'm only taking E. My doctor wants me on it for 3 months before starting AAs. I started in January.

I'm seeing some changes. My breasts are swollen (probably not A cup yet, but definitely changing), I notice smells more, and my sexual arousal/release mechanism has changed a bit.

No emotional changes that I've been able to notice, and the other stuff (body/face shape, skin changes) is probably too slow for me to have noticed anything yet.

You'll get some changes but without blockers your body is going to be in a perpetual hormone battle of attrition.

YOU SAY THE THE COOLEST THINGS! I actually had the cap lock on by accident but I don't feel like retyping and it kinda works.

Thanks

but your quote reminded me I used the wrong form of your 

I take it back then. I'm a total grammar nazi jk lol

I know that in Korea, it's more popular to get E shots only. Some have asked my why I'm also taking spiro...I don't have a good answer other than it's what the doctor said.

Pretty standard  to start on E alone then  measure SHBG and T levels before deciding on AA dosage.

My natural T level was so low it wasn't a factor.

I have been on estrogen only since the very beginning. My doctor started with that first, and I ended up not needing anything else. I've seen some pretty amazing changes using a relatively low dose, even. All bodies are different.

Thanks for all replies.
