I'm starting to come around to the idea that if your goals are specific enough (full transition, A-cups like me, not sure and need guidance, etc, etc), medical HRT is probably not only faster but, shall we say, less risky and more accurate in outcome.
Meanwhile, I think herbal supplements to produce the changes we're seeking here deserve respect in the form of caution. These herbs are perhaps seen as harmless or perhaps not very risky but it's clear from the experiences I've read (and experienced, see above!) that they can produce a lot of undesired permanent outcomes and temporary side effects.
All I can say is know what you are ingesting and the possible downsides before or at least as you move forward. That's probably best achieved by going slow and as I've heard elsewhere on this forum, listening to your body.
