Dysphoria after starting HRT?

Curious to see if any our transgender community has noticed body dysphoria only after starting HRT, either way MtF or FtM. 

Personally, HRT has allowed me to actually view my body in a positive light after HRT was started but I'm sure this isn't the case for everyone.

My Dysphoria was pre transition, thus the need for HRT. Now I just have to learn patience. :)

My dysphoria pre hrt was very bad. Now it is livable. I still am dealing with some issues constantly and on occasion I have a very bad day.

Pre- HRT I didn't care if I lived or died.  Now I enthusiatically want to live because I am no longer a few quarts short of happy juice.

Still not fond of the penis, but getting rid of the T factories was a great step in the right direction.

Yes, dysphoria after starting HRT here.  Before HRT, my mental state was an absolute frickin' mess - gender issues, depression, anxiety, stressed etc.  Wanted so desperately to be a girl but just had no idea how.  Low-dose HRT solved all of those feelings instantly, and it worked for a few months as my mind had settled 100% into the idea that it now felt female.  Now my body seems utterly wrong and the dysphoria is returning with a vengeance; the whole girl trapped in a boy's body thing.  I guess it's just a case of giving the hormones time to work and trying my best to deal with the non-medical aspects of transition.

Far, far happier now though, even with the dysphoria ups and downs.  At least I'm headed in the right direction.  Wouldn't go back for anything.
