I agree with Isabella. The highest my estradiol level has been in the last four months was 106pg/ml on the day before a woman ovulates her level could be 375pg/ml and still be considered normal 12 days after or before her Estradiol level could be 10-15 pg/ml and stil be normal. Have you ever wondered why We don't get nipple growth like a GG does? I do. Why can't those of us who are doing this at an even young age less than 25 not get breast development past tanner stage 4? Is it because they put us on asteady does that never rises and falls like a normal GG? Is it because we never get progesterone like a normal GG? These are questions I have and with all the studies that I have read I still don't have answers. Am I alone with these questions?

I'm going to ask my endo this when I go in next. But my next appointment is Valentines Day so it's gonna be a while. She's said she would be eager to research anything I suggest and see if it's the best thing to do. I think she is extremely interested in the subject, so I believe her actually. Never know, she may end up prescribing me some unheard of doses and have me regulate them in a specific way during a 28 day cycle. Maybe that WILL help achieve Tanner stage 5.

But then again, a spike in E levels can lead to dramatic risks in clots. Also, GGs may have specific endocrine systems in place to regulate those spikes that we do not have. These procedures may work better with a MtF who has undergone an orchi... who knows?

Isabella, its your body to do with as you please so do so .
And my name is Lilacwoman here on Susans.

I go with Isabella when she says "it's all about the balance"

There are plenty fat girls too, and THAT is ALSO about the balance, if you asked me.
You'll want to eat all the time if your E is not balanced.

Now, I also had high-ish E BUT then I was also E dominant ~ 760 pmol/l was feeling not too good, 'cause my T 0.7 pmol/l was very low plus I also had low P.

Again it's ALL about the balance.
One point though, if you run on lower E you may have fewer or less severe out-of-balance situations...

Then it's also quite costly to keep running on very high E, plus P.

Lastly, talking of young females – please do NOT forget... they also have much higher growth hormone levels which supports the total development for both female and male during this phase of life.

My 2 cents,
