Aging+Hormones

[Guest chibi_usa]

Okay. Well you know how people say men look younger at an older age while women look older? Does that mean for MTF's if we are on Estro, would we still be able to maintain this Youth AND girly look (basically a younger girl look)? (Not sure if I'm making sense)

All I can say is that I'm looking a lot younger than my actual age over the last two years on HRT......

Unfortunately....my body still feels my real age!...

yeppurs...can relate. I have an Asst Dist Atty in a county where I used to work who STILL wonders how I keep my skin looking so young (she knows I am in my mid-40's). And if the 'guess my age' game ever gets played at a bar, rare is the instance anyone gets within a decade of my true age...and it is often only that close because the grey has crept in over the past few years.

But yes, recovery of overused ligaments and muscles can take a lot longer in recovery...thank goodness for the jacuzzi at home.

I don't know if this is beyond the edge of what you were asking, but I get carded at bars and liquor stores more at 21/22 than I did at 17 .

Kind of bittersweet, actually.

While YMMV, I am told often that since being on hormones, my skin is softer, the lines in my face have diminished, and I look anywhere from 10-20 years younger. I can see some of those changes myself.

My doctor tells me I have the breasts of a 16 year old, and I know I have the emotions of a girl that age. So there you go...proof positive! In a couple more years, they'll have to diaper me.

Oh, wait a minute, that's um, not exactly what I meant to say...
