You'd Think I Wouldn't Have Questions Still

[Guest Melanie Dawn]

So lately I have been having quite a bit of chest pain.. not severe just off and on and more often then not. Sometimes it's high on my chest sometimes i feel like my nipples are going to explode... normal? I'd love for it to mean I'm growing still, but after 18 months on HRT I think I am done growing

Probably normal. Especially the pain in the nipples. 25 months for me and I sometimes get that. If it gets severe - of course - see your doctor. I think they grow at the rate young girls have with their development - about 6 years, most in the first couple of years.

Also - your estrogen or progesterone may have spiked temporarily.

ah could be... kk thanks Lizzy..I figured it wasn't a big deal, but it seems like it's quite frequent lately..even more so than previously.

Isn't one of the effects of HRT a possible complication with the cardio vascular system? Depending on what you mean by the chest of course (more towards the surface is probably just continued development, changes can take a long time). Either way, I would call the doctor just to check (because I am paranoid).

thanks for your concern/advice...as my wife says..if it's my time to go, and this is how it happens..then i will accept it.

No no no! There are ways to avoid it if you know about it! The thing is just catching stuff early so you can make changes to stop it!

Unless you have an allergic reaction to the HRT, my research shows you are generally trading a male life health risk for a female life health risk.

Having a doctor monitor your doses is the key. My blood pressure went way down, as an example. I am not a risk for cervical cancer, my prostate cancer risk virtually disappeared. Some women have reactions to estrogen replacement. That risk is explained on the internet.

I wouldn't think it's abnormal. It's been 8 to 9 yr's and I still keep an eye on developments. You may be able to make a corralation with optimism I still feel growth, maybe it's in the minds eye.
