Nightshade, your lab test indicate that you are in female range... in other words you're HRT is working, just not to you're visual satisfaction.  I doubt throwing anymore E2 or anti-androgens are going to move the needle so to speak, but there are other options to consider.  For instance, having too much stored estrogen (in fat tissue) isn't being converted into free estrogen,  meaning you need to liberate this stored estrogen locked in adispose issue. It's also a real possibility that you've desensitized your estrogen receptors. Bottom line:  kick your HRT in the ass...do this by burning fat, lower your BMI,  get off of the extra carbs and loaded sugars, go for whole foods not processed.


New fat that isn't burned into energy will settle in all its familiar hangouts, ie visceral fat, underarms, thighs, etc.  there's a huge correlation between what I'm describing an insulin resistance. I would much rather have new fat stimulanting breast tissue rather than those areas mentioned. Look up Dr. Berg on YouTube, his information/web series is invaluable imo, google Dr. Mercola, another great resource too.

Yes, by all means do massage, lymphatic drainage is helpful towards stimulating hormones and breast health. Hope this helps fwiw.
