HRT Update – Month 4
Well it’s been 4 months since I started HRT. This month has seen a lot of
changes.
My chest has started to grow and people have started to notice, some family
members and close friends have told me that it is starting to be noticeable.
Also I seem to be getting a lot of stares now when I am out and about of men,
which can be creepy and affirming at the same time. While I personally cannot
see the difference I can feel the difference and my chest has been having a lot
of pins and needles, which I have been told is a good sign.
I am still losing my strength. I was taking apart a bed base as a friend gave
me one earlier last weekend and I could tell that I was getting tired a lot
quicker and when pulling the fabric off the old base, it took a lot more effort
than it would have done before I started HRT.
The hairs on my body (I have really noticed it on my legs) are not growing
as much, instead of having to shave every couple of days I only now have to
shave once a week. My smell as also changed a lot.
Overall, I am very happy with how things are progressing. Do I still think
it was worth all the hassle of getting on HRT, and the expense? Yes, I would
say it’s probably saved my life.
