Hi everyone!
I have known for most of my life that inside me was not male, it isn't possible for me to transition right now. Sadly I have family that i have to take care of. A stubborn father that is racist, sexist and homophobic. That has been a nerve wracking chore let me tell you.
I am married and she knows, a bit at odds with it but she has been accepting of it. I wish that I could transition more than anything but unfortunately having the funds to do it with is a dream. My job is kind of nearing it's end too.
I am almost 45 and trying to find something that can increase my bust, it's a start in the right direction. Going on hormones right now is not something i can afford. Going through all kinds of doctors is just way out of my affordability right now. Is there any way to grow breast without HRT, any change in that area would make me feel more comfortable with myself. Hopefully someone here might help me with that.
Living the life of a male is something that I have never enjoyed. Not that I find men attractive, I am BI but have never looked into a man's eyes and fell in love.

Hello Elizabeth

I hope you can find some help and support here. I don't know anything that works for breast development other than hormones and surgery. Depending on where you live maybe you can find an affordable way to get on hormones. My doctor doesn't charge me to see her because she knows life is expensive for transwomen and i have found psychologists that bulk bill or charge on a sliding scale and the hormones aren't that expensive if you have a script. I get my scripts filled one a month and it cost about $30.

Good luck on your journey

Elizabeth,

Welcome!   I think you will find many informative posts on the topic of breast enhancement.   You might look up breast pumping and see if that is a technique that might work for you.  I am also not ready to start HRT so have been using a breast pump.   I have achieved modest but noticeable results, one just needs to be patient and persistent.   As far as your family situation goes, perhaps you will find a bit of comfort here!

    For me any results would be great! How long does that take? I imagine quite sometime.

Welcome to Susan's, Elizabeth.

Elizabeth,

When I started, in January, I was a 42 "male".  Now I am a 42A.  Thats not much but like I said, it is noticeable.   The real benefit is that rather than using a silicone breast form to fill out my bras I can use an "add a cup" form.   They fit, feel  and look more natural now.    Plus there is the added psychological boost of taking a step - even a small one - in the right direction!  I am not entirely sure if I am allowed to use the brand name of the pump but I can PM you if you are interested in the name.

Good luck!

Oh please do! Thank you everyone for being so kind!

Hi Elizabeth,

A big Aussie welcome to Susan's family. It's good of you to drop in and say "Hi". Hope you like it here, and you stay for a while.

There is a mountain of information, resources and friendship waiting for you here, you just need to jump in start talking and ask any question you like. You're quite safe here and we are very accepting.

Hummm. Breast enhancement of any variety is going to cost you money. You'd perhaps do better focusing on what will provide the best long term results. May mean getting health insurance for a start.

Just like recapped tyres are really cheap up front, but over the long haul are a waste of time and money, as well as the added risk of early failure.

Sadly there are no short cuts to transition.

Looking forward to hearing more of your story in time to come, but in the meantime, be safe, well and happy.

Lotsa huggs
Catherine
