Hihi, I feel much more at peace now too. I was directly put on blockers. I didn’t know monotherapy existed ^^

:3

It’s really cool to talk with tgirls that are also started recently ! Until now everything was very theoretical. Now that there are some concrete effects (even slight) I am so excited to share and hear about other people’s experience :D

Thank you internet stranger for sharing. You are great :3

You go girl! How’s the HRT going?

And welcome on Lemmy :D

Crying in bed because I wasn’t a girl should have been a definite tell :) But it always went better at some point before it became impossible to hold back so I never sought help. My teens were loops of doubts, then certainty but too scared to talk.

In my later adolescence I realised I (or started to) liked guys, and I was able to to feel better about being one. And I had a few adventures with guys as a guy which felt great and I thus believed that my trans phase had passed, for a few years.

During that time I often described myself as “I don’t really care/I could be either, but people say I’m a guy so ok” but I still had a little (repressed?) desire to be seen as a girl. And I was weirdly emotional about being treated as a guy by laws that differentiate between men and women (military service/retirement age)

Then I had to work as a kitchen assistant, mostly with women, and being treated as a non-woman by them felt really bad. (Previously I was in an environment that didn’t really feel gendered) And the outfit made me look vaguely feminine and I liked it and awoke my desires to be seen as a girl and experiment with clothing and nail polish.

As I experimented, it completely shattered my egg, I slowly came out to friends, and 14 days ago, started HRT!

I’m unsure. Maybe it got to the hips (not the ass, higher) maybe the belly, idk. I didn’t take much weight in the end. My blessing/curse of never gaining weight might still be in effect :)

My nipples are more sensitive but not budding yet. 14th E dose today

I didn’t think about that! Thanks for the tip

Oh great to hear it :D

I don’t know what kind of feeling I was expecting but I believed that I would be able to feel the change in hormones :p

Also: My endocrinologist (spelling???) told me that quite quickly new fat would be deposited in girlies spots. I already ate quite a lot this weekend. Let’s put this claim to the test^^
