Almost 2 1/2 weeks on Spironolactone and Estradiol and still no boobs:Angry3:

Actually, just a post to say how excited I am to have started the next chapter in my life:cheer::cheer:

Started hormones, told everybody, have built an amazing support group, my wife is willing to try standing by me as my wife but if she can't she will always be my friend, Everyone is using the proper name and pronouns and I am going to start the requirements for legal name change within the next 30 days.:D

Weeks? Um, I hope this was this a sarcastic post. I remember a little tenderness during the first month but keep your expectations realistic here. After a few years an A cup is typical, and a B cup is fairly spectacular. So from the sounds of it everything is on track. I hope it continues to be so for you!

Also remember, if you feel you need big boobies, there is always breast augmentation.;)

Kimberly, yes, I was trying for a bit of levity;)

Jorja, we'll see where things are in 18 to 24 months and at that point I will consider going that route to get to a perfect to large "C".

Sometimes, like for me, you'll feel irritation after a couple of weeks. You won't notice any real growth until 6 weeks or 42 days, whichever comes first.

In any case, I am glad you are excited about your new path in life.

42 days came first in my case.

Jenessa, keep up the levity. It is a sign of a healthy outlook in my book and I think it will serve you well. Smiling makes life rock. I also am glad you have that support to see you through. One question, if everyone is using the proper name, is it safe to assume you are already fulltime?

It sounds like you have a healthy outlook on this crazy ass trip.
I'm one of those married transwomen. It will have it's rough patches, and the whole definition of marriage may change. Good luck.
