Hi Girls,
I haven't been here in a pretty long time, but always found it to be friendly and helpful when I asked advice. I have finally begun my transition to female and have been on estrogen for about 9 months I think (under doctor care). It's kinda like going thru puberty again but this time a female puberty. I haven't started an anti androgen yet to block my testosterone but will be starting it very soon. When I started estrogen my blood level for estrogen was less than 1. After 9 months it is now around 300, which is very similar to most women my age or slightly lower. My breasts are developing and my body hair is thinning and lightening. I feel more emotional and can get hot flashes out of the blue!
My nipples are very sore and was wondering how long the soreness lasted for you and if you noticed growth spurts when they hurt. I am still waiting for hip and butt development and hope that will happen when I lower my testosterone level to that of other women. Even with breast soreness, hot flashes and mood swings, I feel... right.
Thanks!
Joan
