    when I saw this I was pre-hrt. I searched it down now that I am 28 days on hrt.

    …yeah.

    my cat crawled on my belly and stepped on one and I felt my soul leave my body. Good news is I have the genetics for MASSIVE honkers. Bad news is I have the genetics for MASSIVE honkers. They already bounce when going down stairs less than a month in lol

      i know it’s like 3 months later because I wanted to send this meme to my friend, but I noticed a difference like 2 weeks in. This is probably for 2 reasons:
      I naturally have the testosterone less than some cis women (NOT good, turned out to be the cause of depression for YEARS) and 2x the estrogen of a cis man. Apparently the cause of this is because my body produces the ‘make breast milk’ hormone for some reason. probably gonna get a MRI brain scan for it in a few months.
      My dad also has testosterone issues and takes testosterone gel for working out, and he figured not to test me also for some reason 🤷‍♀️.

      My mom and sister both have the genetics for MASSIVE boobs. iirc my sister has J cups. Mine are like the size of my fist already 1.5 months in.

        Oh, I can confirm this! I went from skipping lunch almost every day to essentially never completely full. And if I skip a meal I become basically useless. It’s great!

        Also congrats on already feeling weight after 23 days! My own started aching pretty much immediately (hurt for a few days), but it’s gotten more annoying recently and I can actually feel/see 'em now (I hit 100 days exactly today actually!)

        How do you feel? Did you already get the skin smoothing? That was the biggest QoL change for me
