It has been a while since I've been here. Lots have changed and later on in august I'll have my first diagnostic talks with my psych. So thats going well :)

Problem is I continuously worry about the way I look, if I will be passable someday and the main thing i worry about most are the wrinkles in my forehead. Is it possible for estrogen to make them less visible? They're making my face all rough:

I'm not sure if I want to post my whole face on the internet (im a little paranoid in this regard) whats the best way to do so temporarily?

It's possible for HRT to help lessen the effects of the wrinkles. I've noticed the finer wrinkles on my face have faded away, but deeper lines have persisted.

I've been reading up on Retin-A (Tretinoin) that can help with reducing wrinkles as well as hyperpigmentation and other effects of aging. You may need to get this prescribed to you if you require it depending on where you are in the world.
Nobody's perfect ...   I'll never try,
But I promise I'm worth it, if you just open up your eyes,
I don't need a second chance, I need a friend,
Someone who's gonna stand by me right there till the end,
If you want the best of my heart, you've just gotta see the good in me.

To be honest, those are barely perceptible, nothing at all to worry about. HRT will make some difference but in case you haven't noticed, women do also get wrinkles. If they do worry you I'd get some anti-wrinkle cream stat and start using it but as far as I know that stuff is an expensive rip off. HRT will help a bit. So will clean living and not being stressed (the lines on the forehead are largely related to stress). Seriously, they are barely there so you should stop stressing about them or you will make them worse.

Good point you have there, perhaps i'm stressed out so much because i still see a face in the mirror that isn't me. Still that sevond picture of me is a bit overexposed so in reality the wrinkles are far more visible than in the photo.
