Hi ya Julie.
For me, I started out with 50mcg dose per day of E supplied by patch. After about 3 weeks, it really calmed my nerves down about it. I feel no closer today, after having the doctor double my dosage to 100mcg per day, to wanting to "turn in my man card".
My wife has noticed me not so combative, I wont say sensitive cause I have always thought of myself as being empathetic and sensitive, but I have noticed that since my heart attack I am quicker to get really upset more quickly than before. So, I think in a way, it has made my life a little less emotional roller coaster type of a thing.\
I also think that I have the best of both worlds. Some days I want to spruce up to a tad, to days I want to be outright femme to days I don't want either. It blends with my personality and makes it easier to change with my whims.
It does make it nearly impossible to hide my breasts and I am getting a feminine figure, but right now it's more the breasts and those dam nipples. LOL.
I personally think, that if you have to transition.... It eases the burden of the decision. BUT, if your like myself or someone in between. It helps with that as well. I personally think, if I weren't married, had kids or Grand kids I still wouldn't fully transition and turn in my man card. But, never having been that lonesome bi or gay, I guess it's all supposition. Huh? So, my life keeps me anchored maybe but I don't regret it.
