Heys,

So I'm on T injections currently hoping to switch to Estrogen at some point.  As far as I understand, being on E doesn't really "move" fat about, but rather deposits new fat into the "correct" places.  Is that correct?

I've been losing weight at a very positive rate over the past 4 months, (a lot of effort being put into it!).. I'm soon about to hit the 50% mark of what I've got to lose so I still have 4 stone to go before I reach my ideal weight and I hope to achieve that before the end of the next year, whether I'm on T or E.  (between 7 1/2st and 8 st). (I'm 5'4" so still puts me in a healthy weight).

So.. just a bit confused as to how being on E will affect weight loss and fat distribution.. would hate to lose my curvy bits!  Is it perhaps normal for women who started on E to purposely put on weight so that it gets distributed into more feminine places, or is that not advised?
