>Low dose hormones are a tricky thing if you still need to present as male. They will trigger the desire to go further and before you know you're full-time and post-op in a matter of a year or two. 

This thrills me & scares me at the same time. Every night this week I’ve been researching Low Dose E ... I’ve been tempted for months, and it has not gone away. I constantly heard people at work saying they notice I look different. Usually they’re saying they see I’m losing weight in my face. I smile & laugh & say it’s all fat shifting to my belly. (If they only knew). But, so many people say Low Dose is a slippery slope, and I am not a strong willed individual. Right now, I have too much to lose for the major facial changes that E provides, but dammit I want bigger boobies. LoL. 

As I sit by the window, watching for my postal mail to deliver my PM order today ... sigh. 

Low Dose E will make you want to go further.  Nothing can be farther from the dose.  Nothing can make you do anything.

What may happen is that the changes in your hormonal/chemical balance may be better suited to you and that can lead you to recognizing that you need to change.  I've been on what many consider a full transition dose for the last 8-months and I am no where near deciding that I must or even want to completely transition. 

But being on E compared to PM or any other herbal supplements will do 2 things:

1) Actually save you a ton of money, especially if you have decent insurance.
2) Change your body.

How fast your body does change though is completely up to your genetics.  But your body will respond to E much faster and much better to Bioidentical E than it will to PM or other phytoestrogens.
