Hi Eloise,
Yes, you're right.....patience, patience, um, patient, lol, watching paint dry could be more exciting. I take some solace seeing minor changes, I like to think of them as small victories,
meaning changes to areolas, skin, shape of the breast (on that particular day, etc). For me, obsessing (over lack of changes) manifested into boobie greed, and this could be harmful (e.g. health risks) as it was for me. My expectations of growth was at least 1 cup increase each year, 3+ years later it was slightly over that. Even Hrt is no quick response, 2-3+ years there too.
Once you get glandular tiissue it
doesn't go away unless surgically removed. The WTF did I do to myself is real.......don't kid yourself, if you're not sure about doing this, don't do it........better seek guidance, advice from someone with actual experience, and a professional therapist could help too.
The reality is that the narrative still exists in the medical community, non-binary gender types face stigmata over the traditional trans role (mtf). The fact that more gender variants exist these days isn't alarming to many of us, however, it is to the folks who are closed minded. Coming out trans to your doctor is unnerving to say the least. My therapist (3rd one) gave me a piece of advice that made sense to me, have your health care monitored (e.g. labs, med's, tests) to play it safe. Now, it took me 2 years to find a doctor who spealizes in transgender care, and still, I had to jump through hoops, (total BS imo). The first time around was a disaster, the guy was jerk, I realized later about his discrimination towards non-binary types, (in fact he stated he didn't believe in the other gender variants).
Seeking medical care for GID, hmm, not easy. I read how some make it sound so easy to go on Hrt, (e.g. walked out the same day with a prescription in hand), I think it paints an unrealistic picture, in fact that's not always the case. Turning to DIY methods seem to be the only option for some, it did for me. And why is that?. Who's the voice of change?, please don't mention a certain reality star. If the incidence of DIY is high, why wouldn't more doctors be willing to monitor health care, it makes no sense not too.
In a perfect world we'd be able to express differences of gender without being in-fear for your life. Look, male anatomy has mammary glands capable of growing boobs, is this the makers doing?, maybe so.
Goodness gracious, sorry, I went out of my norm.
