    Good morning All. Coffees 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".

    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.

    I don't see why not. I have worn forms since I came out.

    I have never worn breastforms, but I assume as long as they don't aggravate your nipples you could.

    MaeBe's Trail of Discovery

    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.

    What are you wearing today?

    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

    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

    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.

    My brothers and I had to eat what was on the plate. All of it, and nothing else. Pickiness was not tolerated. Some of our least favourite were liver and onions, sauerkraut, and especially rollmops (pickled herring). We finally protested enough to persuade our mother not to serve rollmops, though she kept a jar in the pantry for years afterwards, as a threat if we didn't behave.
  17. I'll go first. My favorite team is the Yankees. Loved them since I was a kid. I was born in NYC so, yeah. I know everyone loves to hate them, and that's OK. I just love baseball in general. It's a game of traditions, strategy, power, grace and skill. Play Ball!! Carolyn Marie

    I guess you do have a good point. It's just hard to try and not have the same meals over and over again.

    Hi I’ll weigh in on being picky about food. Yes, and I was brought up that way. We didn’t have to eat everything our parents ate. They had a number of things they ate that they figured we wouldn’t eat, an acquired taste things or one or the other didn’t like them too. even as an adult there are many things I won’t eat. In my defense, there are different things my wife won’t eat. the weird thing is that after being in E, my tastes have changed. Sweet, sour, salty or bland, if I eat or drink too much of any one thing and I have to counter act it. Willow

    I have shared my doses and levels a lot and no one has said anything. Yeah I put alarms on my phone to make sure I don't miss a dose. I tend to forget a lot of stuff on what needs to be done. I have been also using the calendar on my phone a lot. I missed an appointment because I didn't put it in my calendar.

    Six Word Stories

    Feeling better than I did yesterday

    It's official. My doctor wants me retested after the last results (too high). The test, that she scheduled, was likely too close to the dose. She did tell me to keep the increased dose instead of reverting to my old one, probably because my "too high" wasn't that high. I don't know what the forum's stance is on results, knowing full well the rules against sharing dosage, so I'll keep those under wraps until I know if it's OK to share those. Less to say, it was over the range she feels comfortable with by about 50%, but taken a day earlier than the midpoint value she was expecting. Grains of salt everywhere! Of course I messed everything up too, missing my dose for the first time, yesterday. I had to re-reschedule the lab I setup yesterday to Monday from Saturday after taking my shot this morning to avoid the same issue with the testing. I woke up and thought, "Thursday, what do I have to do for work today? OH -crap-, IT'S THURSDAY! I missed my shot yesterday!" Anyhoo. Question for the ladies: does anyone else get a mild zen-like high after their shots/doses? My brain feels lighter and I'm happier and I feel a lot more girlie this morning.

    Growing the "Girls"

    I'm into my fourth month of HRT and just titrated up in dosage after my last checkup. This is my life. I have yet to grow out of my B cup bras, but I have noticed more fullness, having started with gynecomastia. I am seeing less gapping in bras with my right breast, which has always been smaller than my left. My areolae are slightly pronounced/projected now, that are larger but not vastly greater in circumference, and I have noticed little to no nipple changes beyond their painful sensitivity.

    @Ivy that is a great point! Great post!
  25. -It's not a sprint it's an endurance. -It won't happen overnight. -Seek a gender therapist. -You might lose a lot of support but hang in there. If they truly loved and cared about you they would stay. -Retail therapy helps and plus it builds your wardrobe and shoes. -Makeup is an artwork. It takes lots of practice to do it right and watch YouTube videos on how to put it on or someone who is knowledgeable. -You are going to have roller coaster emotions so don't rush anything.
