How long were you on HRT before you went full time?

Right now the plan is for January, which will be 7 months in.  However, work is the only aspect of my life where I am not out, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to keep it separate.  So, if they find out early I will probably just go for it now.
"Choosing to be true to one's self — despite challenges that may come with the journey — is an integral part of realizing not just one's own potential, but of realizing the true nature of our collective human spirit. This spirit is what makes us who we are, and by following that spirit as it manifests outwardly, and inwardly, you are benefiting us all." -Andrew WK

For me, I'll have my 3rd Therapy session in 2 days. My Therapist wants me to come as Jessika instead of Guy Mode. (No idea why), but I agreed. :)
On Friday she has me set up with a Psychologist so I will get evaluated to make sure I'm sound of mind in what I am doing.

I have a contact to start getting Laser hair removal of the face. It's all I care for atm, I can do the rest myself for the time being. I will not start HRT until after the Laser is complete more than likely.

Not sure which HRT path I will take since I'm 47 but in good health.

I just hope I get thru it safe and happily.

*hugs* to you all.

Definitely an interesting topic.  I find it fascinating how spread out the spectrum is, though a rough bell curve gives it a few months in to go ft.  I haven't started HRT yet (hopefully this winter), and i'm not out at work yet, officially anyway (several people at work know, others kind of guessing, and there are rumors going around that I've heard about), but i only present in guy mode when I'm on my way, at, or coming from work.

   Jessika the first time I met with a doctor at the VA in West Palm FL I went fully dressed. They knew I meant what I was telling them and never questioned me. Walking down the hallways with all those brave men gave me the confidence to go full time and I never have looked back. It took 5 more months to get Hrt but by that time dressing was second nature besides all the guy clothes were gone !

For me at 6 months I needed to go full time or go insane and I never looked back !

For me it was 4 months post hrt. It all just got too much and i had to leap forward and go fulltime.  Not that i pass all the time, but i don't really care...
I now see why so many relocate and start their life over as the new person.

For me, it was 2 years almost exactly. I began HRT on September 25th, 2012 and legally transitioned on September 29th, 2014, at which point the very last of the male clothing in my closet went bye-bye. I went slow for various family reasons, even though my marriage is on the rocks anyway. My good will seems to have earned me a closer relationship with my adult daughter than I ever had before.

More than 5 years and counting, with most of it low dose. Its a bit of a struggle, but I'm trying not to go full time anytime soon.

I'm at 15 months and still not full time. That should be changing this month once my name change goes thru. I am completely out everywhere but at work they asked if I can wait until my name change so I am. I present male there but let's be honest that doesn't work to well and a lot of my coworkers already call me Hayley.
Byes!!!! It's been real but this place isn't for me. Good luck in the future everyone.

I am such a bloody engineer.  :laugh:  I laid out a schedule - six months to get fit + a year and a half of Minoxidil and Finasteride.  Two years of electrolysis.  Two years of HRT.  So very dude like.  It all went away when my tits refused to hide behind a sports bra, and I just couldn't face another Costco sport shirt.  Turned out to take me about sixteen months in the real world and two years to get the Federal Government to start calling me girlfriend.

I was on low dose HRT for about 4-5 years before switching to full strength HRT which I've been on a year now. I've been full time since August 17th.

Good question I really don't know the answer. It's not like I set a date and started living fulltime on that day. Mine was a gradual slide starting about the second month on hormones. I told my employer about the 9th month. But I'm thinking it was around last December when actually kinda realized I'm living full time when I realized I couldn't remember the last time I wore my male clothes. So I'll say about the 10/11th month.  ;D

Approaching 18 months and still do not intend to go FT. On the other hand, I do not live as a guy anymore either :).

This is really useful info, call me a data geek but I'd love to see a poll like there was about heights! Too shy to start one though (blush). I'm hoping I'll go ft at 12 months but it all depends. Wow I just realized I need to start working on my voice.

8 or 9 years!  I have had full electro and can mostly still pass as male, but "different." My wife fully supports me but work is problematic, and at my age too difficult to find new decently paying job.  HRT has made it totally livable however.

That seems to be my undoing too.  Forget my one year schedule; my chest has other ideas.
