When I started HRT last February, I took a lot of comfort in knowing that I could quit along the way and nobody else would know anything different. It wasn't that I was planing to quit; it just felt reassuring that I could. But I knew a day would come when there was no turning back. Mentally, I was probably there at about 2 months in. At that point, when I missed as dose, it just felt completely wrong to me. I needed my estrogen.

But physical side has taken a little longer.  I could see the changes because I was looking for them, but I was pretty sure nobody else could. That is starting to change drastically. In the last couple of weeks, I am astonished by how quickly my body seems to be morphing. I am very close to the point where it will become impossible to hide what I am doing from my work colleagues. I either quit now, or I go down a one way road. Well, I just took another dose of estrogen, so I better start thinking about how I am going to come out to my colleagues. Womanhood here I come!

Hey, it is nice to hear that hormones have worked so well for You, both mentally and physically . As regards Your colleagues - please do not rush things. We clearly are very self-conscious and tend to interpret things ourway, and often overestime other people's abilities to observe and make conclusions. The truth is - most of them dont really care or notice those small things which happen on a day by day basis, and they subconsciously adapt to Your new appearance and so they dont really see You changing either. If they dont start asking (which they rarely would) or acting weird - better keep Your own secret to Yourself for a while.
