I got my eyebrows done today which is something that I have been wanting to do for YEARS! Now that I have gone full-time, I thought I'd finally do them :)

I have uploaded some pics to my gallery.

HRT 4 months + 5 days.

Nice Jenny! You and I actually started HRT on the exact same day, and I have to say the shapes brows really work for you. :) I got mine shaped as well a few weeks ago and I've been maintaining them self. It makes a huge difference in ones appearance I think. :)

Anyways looking great!

Big Hugs,

Sarah

Thanks Sarah :) I am very happy with them and you're right - it has made a huge difference to my face. By the way, you look AMAZING, seriously. You look like you're 20! I had to go and check your profile to find out your age :)

For having been on HRT for the same time as you, I am very happy with my progress so far. I think it's not bad for someone who's 12 years older than you!

Life is good, isn't it?

:o Wow... I just looked at your profile.. I totally had you pegged for 30 when you said 12 years older than me I was like "Yeah right.." You look really great! :)

And thanks!

I'm really glad that things are going well for you even considering the loss of job. You have a great attitude and that goes such a very long way. :) Keep it up Jenny!

Thanks Sarah <3 You've made my day! Yep, I'm turning 41 next month. Maybe the fact that I'm finally feeling comfortable in my skin is what is showing through? I feel fantastic!

Kay - just waxed :) I did hunt around for someone I could trust - seeing as it's the first time that I have ever got them shaped. If anyone reading wants to know where I went:

Vibromania

3/3-5 Hewish Rd

Croydon, VIC 3136

Australia

(03) 9723 3299

Ask for JAN

I've never gotten mine waxed, but got my first threading a few weeks ago and it was a great experience.

My GT says I look like I've lost 10 years since I started seeing her. Not sure that's true, as people have always thought that I'm much younger than I am. I usually don't correct them ;)

BTW, I'm 14 years older than you, Sarah :blink::blush:

Now before all you girls go running off about how great you look for your age....We expect that young folks look good. From this point the 2nd anniversary of the 39th is a 24 years back. I look and feel younger as well.

Oh and back on subject. Your eyes look great. Raising the brows really opens up the eyes and lets the beauty out at any age.

Hugs,

Charlie

You should! My hair stylist said that getting your brows waxed makes a bigger difference on how ones face appears than even hair style. I used to think my brows were just fine before, but now I look back at the pictures and I cringe just a little. :) Im sure you would be happy with the results.

I have to ask, what exactly is threading?

You're also looking really good Kaylee, and even better with each new photo I see!

My eyebrows were a real bushy highlight on my face. I mentioned this to my electrolysis lady and she said I can fix that for you if you like. No time like the present so we discussed how I wanted them to look. She proceeded to work on my brows for the next half hour. Quite a change. During this weeks regular visit of my war on facial hair, she tweaked the line a bit and cleaned things up. They now look even better. I like how they came out and maintaining them is almost nothing at all. Electrolysis can kill those hairs for good if done right. Over the next year working on the rest of my face she'll go after any strays for me. No waxing, no tweezing seemed liked the best choice for me. Everyone deals with those pesky hairs in a way that works for them. Here is another choice for you to consider.

      The number is relative to method of deliver, the time of the dose, and when the blood is drawn. However, I do want to keep away from DVT and other potential issues. I assume I may be getting backed down from my current dose, but my doc told me to stick with the higher dose, so? I also wonder if this has anything to do the my breast growth and mental changes that have been happening over the past few years, like I have some estrogen sensitivity so a little goes a long way or something? I don't have enough data to postulate, but who knows!   With weekly, subcutaneous, shots you expect to see big swings of serum level estradiol from shot to peak to trough. My doctor is interested in mid-week testing (for E and T levels only), which would be post-peak blood serum levels but they will be higher than trough. Most, if not all, resources I've seen online is to measure at trough (which I might do just to do it next time) along with a SHBG, LH, and other metrics.   This is from transfemscience.org for Estradiol valerate in oil, which is very spiky compared to some other estradiol combinations. It's also for intramuscular, which will have a slower uptake and is usually dosed in higher volume due to the slower absorption rate from muscles. They don't have subcutaneous numbers, which I would expect to see similar spikes but higher levels at similar doses due to the relatively higher absorption rate direct from fat.   Are you doing pills, shots, or patches? And when you do get your levels checked are you getting that done when your levels are lowest or some other time?

      Both of my parents were from the “North Shore” of Boston.  My mother Lynn and my father Swampscot.  They had an early 1900s Scots-Irish New England diet.  My sister and I were born in the 40s in Ohio well away from New England seafood and in an area where food was more German and Polish.  My first experience with liver and onions was during basic training.  They ate salt cod but never forced us to eat it same with oysters.  My dad ate oysters but my mother wouldn’t.  Anyone who ever ate an oyster can figure that one out.  I grew up eating lamb.  My wife won’t touch it. I love brazed ox tail, again no way. And the list goes on.

      My mother was German, so yes, I think it was a cultural thing.  If I'd known you when we were cleaning out my mother's place, I could have sent you her "threat jar".

      Been taking it real easy.Another good neighbor of mine and his 15 year old son came over and cut down a couple dead trees on my property.Knew not to do it taking it easy.I had them put the wood near my fire pit in the back yard.Did it and happy where they put it.They knew I had stents put in and needed to take it easy

      Wow that is a high number for Estradiol good grief! Testosterone levels are better than mine. I don't remember my Estradiol level but testosterone was 80. To me that is really high but it was in the two hundreds the check in before last one.

      I don't understand why this would make a difference being a "dad" I mean, as far as how they would grow.
    • Ashley0616
      I don't see why not. I have worn forms since I came out. 
    • MaeBe
      I have never worn breastforms, but I assume as long as they don't aggravate your nipples you could.

      Every week I've been excited to take my shot, so it's never been an issue. Yesterday, however, I woke up and started my usual "slow roll" and then suddenly realized I had breakfast plans that I had to rush out the door for. After, it was straight into work calls, and then I got the notification from the doctor about things being too high and all the while my mind had completely slipped that I needed take my shot.   Given that I am not asking for medical advice, but sharing my journey, I will note my results: Estradiol at 447 pg/mL and Testosterone was 23 ng/dL, up and down from 26 pg/mL and 526 ng/dL respectively before treatment. Almost flipped the bit! The doc would like my Estradiol closer to 300 pg/mL, so we'll see what Monday's tests state.   Oh, and I teased the dinner with old soccer teammates and never updated the thread! It went well. There were a couple funny moments. One guy, who I was worried about their response, greeted me with "Hey, you've lost some weight!" 😎 And a friend who lives near me picked me up on the way to dinner exclaimed, after we learned one of the invitees might show up with a date, "Wait! We could have brought women?!" To which I instantly responded, "You kind of did, bringing me!" Everyone got a good laugh out of that. 😁

      To me there isn't that much difference other the measurement, which side the zipper is on and men's pants have bigger pockets.

      I hope this is not stupid question..I have yet to start n not sure if doc will approve..but once you start growing buds n such, can you still wear forms to get to the size you were?   I'm a dad, so when I start blossoms they will be smaller for a long time n probably need surgical augmented..that's fine. I don't want to go ddd to aa to ddd..   any ideas?   thank you

      April sounds fun..I keep some boy jeans to visit mom in..fir now   hugs
    • Ivy
      I like them too.  We had them growing up.  But my father's family were Swedes.

      Oh my!  I guess it just goes to show how different tastes can be. Since we don't live near the ocean, Seafood is a rare luxury. We absolutely love pickled herring! Especially my husband and my GF, I guess it's a Ferman/Russian cultural thing.  But most of the kids like it too, and a jar wouldn't last in the pantry for long 😆
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      I think the key to that is just not minding eating the same thing repeatedly. Since we produce a lot of our own food here, we end up eating what is in season at the moment. So, when the yellow squash is ripening, we end up fixing squash 20 different ways. When the strawberries are ready, we eat lots of strawberries. It's kind of a different mindset to eat in season when it has become such a part of American culture but the grocery store has everything we want all the time. Like grapes in December.  My family does even things out a little bit by having a greenhouse so we have some fresh things in the winter, but it's not a 100% fix.
