    People self-medding supposedly have a higher chance of developing misshapen boobs?

    When I had my first appointment at the GIC, the doctor I had said that there had recently been a study that showed people self-medding had a higher chance of developing misshapen boobs than those who had their hormone levels monitored.
    Something to do with the levels of estrogen causing premature cessation of breast growth in the self-medders.
    I can't find this study though, has anyone seen it?

    I am most definitely against self meds .... but me thinks that doc is waxing rather poetic. The affects are the affects... the main reason for the watchful eye of a doc is the bad problems, not the growth !!

    Yeah, Id like to read it too, thats why I made this topic. But the GIC is a pretty busy place and Id feel like I was wasting their time by asking for this study, but I think I may have to.

    Hmmm. Some doctors just make stuff up. Really. I have heard some incredible things said in all seriousness.

    I am quite skeptical. TS people are very difficult to study because we are few in number, and breast shape determination is highly subjective

    Doubtful. Since the hormones are distributed evenly throughout the body having something grow misshapen would be about as likely as it would be in a normally developing person. Of course one breast is always smaller than the other (slightly). Maybe he needs to say something more like "Self medicating people have a higher incidence of bleeding, cancer, heart attack" At least then there would be studies specific to female hormones that could back that up. Fear can be a strong deterrent in many cases though.

    BTW don't self medicate.

    Reminds me of when my Mom told me if I crossed my eyes would they'd stay that way.

    But self medicating is bad. And drugs. Don't do drugs either.
    I've gone to find myself. If I should return before I get back keep me here to wait for me so I don't go back out and miss myself when I return.

    And remember to always look both ways when crossing the street!
