I'm so happy that things are changing so much!
I have been a lurker and in and out of the forum since 2006 and I started HRT Dec 19, 2017.
I identify as non-binary and wish to look male while dressed and female undressed.
So, I wear male clothes during the day but love my wonderful cotton nighties at night.
I always had my hair short but am now growing my hair out to be gender neutral.
Only my wife will see me in the undressed stage.
Everyone compliments me these days on my hair, weight loss and that "something else look" they cannot put a finger on thing about me these days.
Little do they know...
I have been on HRT for 5 months and my boobs are growing to the point that they might be getting hard to hide.
My measurements at the bust line now are 41" and under the breasts at 37".
According to (sophisticatedpair.com/bra-size-calculator/) that makes me a 36DD size.
My first measurement was at 3 months and I was 40" at the bust line and under the breasts at 39.5" so things are changing.
Changes are likely from HRT, diet and exercise.
I walk 5 miles every day and eat almost no carbohydrates except as a treat.
I am 64, 5'11" and weigh 179lbs and hope to move down to about 155lbs by the end of this year.
I am doing this through continued exercise, good diet and Pilates which I have been doing for 16 months now.
That and the HRT reshaping that should start happening at a more accelerated pace as I move into the 6 months and longer HRT period.
I love running on estrogen and never, ever want to run on testosterone again.
I feel like it's like putting rocket fuel in a hot rod!
It is just so, so right!
Planning to have an orchie in September.
My only fear is that I am binding a bit by wearing "shaping" shirts and the girls/boobs don't seem to like it.
They like to be free but it is harder to hide them when I let them roam free.
My next appointment with the endo is in 1.5 weeks.
Should I ask or push to have my estrogen intake lowered or just abide by her recommendation?
I must be taking to the HRT very well so I must be lucky?
