Seriously though, how much does fat redistribution on T flatten out your butt?  It's one of my more, erm, prominent features, and it bothers me.  I'm thinking that, as it's in the same general area as the hips, it may migrate in the same way.  Is that true?

I'm not exactly sure which possibility you're bothered by....

Unfortunately, I can't really give you an answer,
I'd really like to know the answer to this question too actually.
I've got the same problem you do,
I've got quite the bootylicious behind =___=;

I'm hoping it'll flatten out some

After two years on T my ass is much flatter than it used to be. It wasn't huge to begin with so now its tiny. Pants definitely fit much different now.

My arse is HUGE, thanks to my lovely giant hips. I hate that feature of myself, but since the hipbone itself is huge there's nothing I can do about it. I'll probably never ever pass as a guy, due to my stupid walking style. I am slightly knock-kneed, and flat-footed, and I never quite mastered moving my arms when walking (even my mother told me I had to start moving my arms or else I'd look weird, but I can't do it naturally, I have to force myself to do it). This leads to my hips swinging a LOT, since I have to "compensate" for lack of arm movement and weird walk due to messed-up feet and legs. Ultra-female walk style, and I will probably be unable to change it.

I'm sorry for that rant, it's the morning and the dysphoria is strong within me (as well as making jokes based on nerdy things, it seems). I do hope T will rid me of some of the feminine fat patterns, though...

My ass was never massive on me to start with, but there's almost nothing there now. My belts need extra holes because I have no ass to hold my trousers up with. My mum has noticed and mentioned it several times because she's a creeper My hips are thinner and still bother me, but bone structure cannot be changed. Fat redistribution tends to keep happening for up to around 3-5yrs on testosterone so it's probably one of the most gradual changes.

A lot - and for me, it was the first major body shape change. My hips and thighs are still gargantuan, but my butt is flat.

Come now, let's be reasonable... Who DOESN'T have a question about my ass?

I've been on T for less than 6 months, and there's definitely been some ass reduction for me. I weighed less pre-T, but now I can wear jeans that I could barely squeeze into before. My hips and thighs have also gotten smaller. I'm hoping that region will continue to shrink.

Have you ever seen a doctor about your feet? I'm also flat-footed, it was the first thing the physio mentioned when I complained about joint problems. You really need to get your feet sorted out, because as you may have found, it messes up the rest of your legs.

As for the original question - it may be because of the gel and the fact that my T levels plummeted post-hysto, but although there is an indication that fat is moving upwards, not much has changed in that area yet* Maybe when I can get on Nebido...

*I didn't have big hips or arse to start with, although with me starting as a 34" (and later filling out), it'd be nice if I could get back to that and have better fitting trousers.

Hey a guy with a nice ass is awesome-- seriously.  Look at that Maks on DWTS-- big kudos to a guy WITHOUT a flat ass.

My ass is completely flat.  It was pre-T, but not as bad as it is, my weight went straight to my gut and almost nearly refused to move! 

So, I think it's different for everyone, of course.  I say wait it out and see!  But don't sweat the larger butt thing.  Many styles of jeans can help hide it if you are self-conscious.  The easiest way is to have jeans with LARGE back pockets.  For smaller asses, smaller pockets. =)

The key here is exercise...do the right work and you will have a killer butt T or no T....

When I was on [naturally produced] T my butt was still pretty big.  I don't know if it's so much T as genetics.

Before T I didn't really need a belt. Now if I don't wear one my pants can be pulled off without unbuttoning. My thighs are also different. There's less fat and or more muscle.

Heh, good point.  Of course, if I were built like that I don't think I'd sweat the small stuff so much.

It sounds like kind of mixed results.  I'll just keep my fingers crossed and hope that it goes down more than the rest of me as I lose weight.

I've always been a fairly serious bicycle rider & athlete so i've always had a butt BUT since T, have lost some ass and it has changed shape. What fat i have definitely has shifted from hips and butt to my gut.
