Hrt - Frustrations

[Guest danielle]

Hello Girls, it has been a bit since I have been here but my life has been a bit chaotic recently.

I have been on HRT now 8 months and certain aspects of that are fine and I am dealing with those as they come, but I guess my biggest frustration is the development or in this case seemingly lack of... upper growth, the doctor stated that by this time i should be about an Large A-Cup or even B ... well i do not think that is quite there so it is a bit frustrating to me.

The only other frustration that I am dealing with is hair growth it seems thataround the start of fall / winter it stoped growing...

any clues suggestions from you all would be helpfull.

Thanks

Hey Danielle I missed you! Sometimes you won't get breast growth at all it depends from person to person. Hair normally grows when it's cold as hair is a way of trapping heat inside the body so try often putting cold water on it just to stimulate it a bit and never use hair dryers or straigthners etc. Also massaging can help hair grow. Sorry I couldn't tell you more about the HRT breast growth problem maybe when I start I will be able to help a lot more lots of love many cuddles and kisses

PS. By the way my hair grows a treat its just past my shoulders now and I do often use cold water but theres always cold weather near me anyway

Hey Danielle,

Honey,the average transwoman gets a full cup size less than her female relatives.

Most end up with a small B cup.I am almost nine months in transition,and i am a full B cup.Yay!!!!

You might try protien bars and shakes to give your girls some added incentive to blossum.

That is where the energy to develop comes from...Protien.

And...It takes a full two years for your breasts to reach their maximum growth/size.

Patience Love.

Big Hugs,

Angie.

Hey Girl,

Try not to dwell on it. It felt like it was taking forever for me to get to an A cause I measured almost every day. When I stopped dwelling on it I was surprised to find that one day I did need a new bra and delighted when it was a B. Time seems to slow down when one is consentrating alot on something. Just try not to dwell (I know hard as steel to do but) everything will happen.

Hey Girl!

Just wait a little while longer for the breasts, they will come. Also have you thoguht of padded bras until you start getting them? As for the hair, don't worry about that either, not all women have extremely long hair, mine is just past my shoulders and I have been growing it for 4 years, and it looks just as fem as women with longer hair. Give it time sweetie.

*Hugs*

-Love, Lessa

Conditoner helps hair grow faster. Certain supplements can help with that too.

[Guest shimmeringkristal]

something that also might help would be prenatal vitamins.

Hair, lol I have male pattern baldness on my temple areas. I kept watching it every day for the first month that I was on HRT and couldn't see a thing and was getting a little worried about it. The same thing with my breasts. The nipples had swollen and gotten really sensitive and sore but no really anything in the growth dept even thou I did have chest pecs from working out when I was younger. Any way I got real busy with work over the next couple of months and would be so tired when I got home from all the hours that I just grabbed a salad , a shower, and then usually to bed. One day at work I was driving the spotter truck which is rough riding and some of the bumbs made me bounce in the seat and it was like oh crap that hurt, my breasts actually bounced up in the air and when they came back down it reall hurt. I got to looking ( when I found some place with privacy ) and I had like breasts, real ones, it was like wow when did these pop up. Now I wear a padded 38 A cup bra which I really need at work so as not to be hurting in the truck. I got home and started looking at my bald spots and holy moly my bald spots were covered with fine hairs starting to grow back. I still have a hard time beleiving all this is happening. I was always told by the other girls not get ancy and give it time and they were right, just forget about it and one day you'll wake up and get the most amazing shock of your life at some of the changes that have taken place. For me it was like I woke up one morning and found a whole new me. Just give it time and don't focus on it, don't keep looking in the mirror, just sit back enjoy your new life and let mother nature do her thing and one day you will get a nice surprise. Relax and take it easy. It will get there.
