I still believe that its not worth the risk, especially when other methods (like PM, NB etc) may be more beneficial for BE than HRT drugs. But every member here should make their own research and decide which method suits him/her best. Take care guys.
Peggy a TS that decides they are going to go down this road doesnt really have much of a choice... I sincerely doubt that most of the girls here on HRT are just doing it for kicks... For some its transition or die, I could never go back to living as a man now... That would be very depressing... Your intentions are good and I appreciate your concern but GD is something thats beyond my control, nobody wants to be born this way...
You can bring up all the studies you want for already very feminized women pre or post menopausal but I really dont think it applies to MTF HRT
Show me one that says MTF are at a high risk of cancer please... I havent been able to find anything and my doc never mentioned any risk of cancer when she told me what to expect and what the risks are.... She only mentioned the risk of stroke... But she put me on Medroxyprogesterone acetate, bad stuff and not at all the optimal choice for HRT... Docs dont even really know whats going on with something as radical as transforming from male to female.... Syn progestins with E do have noted risks.... But thats not what Im on anymore... Im on bio identical E, spiro and dutasteride....
I do think NBE is a good place for someone on the fence to start out with, and for some it may even work well enough to fully transition on... There is no doubt some here have very impressive results on herbs only
But the fact is for someone that's decided to torch that "man card" and go for full transition I cant see going with anything less than the best pharma regime available...
While my breasts might not be the most impressive result of HRT so far the other results have been amazing
I just hit 155 lbs this morning and there isnt much fat left on me.... Im am losing upper body muscle and for me thats more important than breasts for my feminization for now... Id like to lose few more pounds, maybe 145 lbs at 5' 8" then go on a weight GAIN diet designed to optimize breast growth and hopefully put some fat in the right places
I also have GREATLY reduced body hair and even some hair regrowth starting on my bald head
NBE will not do that for a full time girl...
Lastly the effect on the mind nearly zero T and high E brings is much different than NBE.... While PM made me feel much better it's nothing compared to what Im on for feminizing the mind, I simply cant see ever going off of it now
I think Id rather be dead, seriously...
