Ok,
Long story won't go there but may pause HRT.. been on HRT for 5 months..  may take a break to see how I feel on T again..
The question, if I stop for a month will my body think puberty is over and if I start back up will I lose the ability to develop my chest.
I am getting amazing results.. so I worry a pause would screw up future results.
I don't know if anyone can answer that.. seems unlikely anyone would know but wanted to ask..
Most likely won't be able to stop.. longest I have gone is about 4 days when I tried.

Please don't start and stop without a doctors monitoring and titration. It could put your system into shock and lead to health issue's. :)

I did check with the endo and she gave me a plan if I wanted to stop.. it was much faster than I thought.. I am getting a new Endo.. she does not even check my T and E levels...
In reality I can't stop unless I know I won't lose any future progress if I start back up.
I just thought I would see how I felt if I stop  just in case I can quit.
It has to do with a pending divorce and split with my wife... just soul searching best I can.
Its hard.

Well, it's good your endo has a plan but from what I've gathered from other girls who stopped and restarted, it would appear that future feminization would not be compromised. But no guarantees in life and please, follow your doctor's plan to the letter. Good luck with everything. :)
I am not a medical doctor, nor a scientist - opinions expressed by me on the subject of HRT are merely based on my own review of some of the scientific literature over the last decade or so, on anecdotal evidence from women in various discussion forums that I have come across, and my personal experience

On HRT since early 2004
Post-op since late 2005
