I'm beginning to think it might be best for me just to start my own thread as I've been posting randomly in a few so far, though I'm quite a bit shy and have had trouble building up courage to even post here. I just feel I'm missing a substantial piece of the puzzle that can work in association with HRT in general though a lot of what people are doing here is pretty amazing to me. From what I can gather I need to add a few things on.
I think these are taken daily in oral form or perhaps dissolved in the Lemon Extract?
Krill Oil
Caynne
Ginseng
Calcium Cirate
Lemon Extract.
Purchase of a Spectra S2 is definitely on the cards but I'm gonna continue my own Massages while adding in the above as the machine is pretty pricey.
Lotus's Thread has been especially informative as I've progressed through the pages and their revision of treatmeant is quite impressive but I guess this isn't a one size fits all. Gosh theres so much to think about <3

Ah no worries at all, I've just been reading so much lately with Lotus thread over 452 pages? I've only read like 40 lol. I know exactly how you feel with practicing voice I've been working on mine for quite awhile, even did 3 lessons with Zhea back in 2018-19. Though covid blew up my job and everything else so no income it became the perfect storm the moment she went viral upped her prices.... But since January I've been working quite hard on that too and have just able to reliably say a totally natural "hello" and that's about it lol. But I'm working towards things like Macro-Vowels/Micro-Vowels which are more advanced concepts along side stronger M2 before I push into mimicry work. (I can do both older and younger women and sometimes chibi if I'm in the mood)
I hope things settle for you, privacy issues are never fun so I hope things get better on that front " alt="

I am I found the courage and posted a picture of my breasts on HelloDidi's thread, though its an older picture of me at Tanner 3 36DD I'm Tanner 4 so a lot fuller with both of them sorta identical at least way more than that picture shows. My right likes being the bigger gal " alt="

"> Also I didn't think you forgot me I just thought everyone here only posts rarely as activity kinda spikes depending on the day I've noticed.
I do have discord and will send you that in PM.
I think once I know what I need to acquire and dosage I will likely start my own thread, though I'm currently losing weight my boobs are holding fine only my under bust is going even then its only been .5 of an inch so 35.5". But something must be working since maintaining my cycling. My dream is to find out what can aid standard HRT with what I've seen here in natural response with higher response from the receptors utilising oestrogen and progesterone. Making the body more efficient in using those is very interesting to me.
You mean 2200pmol/l? Wow and I thought I was sorta high that's pretty impressive honestly lol. I do have a more up-to-date blood reading I got today with my patches swapped on Monday and weds was the test for the most truest results.
I've only dipped my feet in but I saw in Lotus's plan that they utilise lemon extract I haven't read enough to work out why just yet so I hope to catch up soon.
Unrelated I might be able to get my hands on a Philips Avent Comfort Twin that my sister once tried but she couldn't produce for my nephew so I'll see if I can get that one instead of the S2

Yup its a tough read I kind of drift of sometimes usually when I'm not busy I want to rest ^^; I think its amazing the information they have extrapolated purely from experience. Ah I'm a Type 2 Diabetic but I've lost the weight contributing to it and eat pretty much zero sugar I've been in Remission now for as long as I've been on HRT but still have to have blood tests annually. I'll try that out I'm just gonna start simply right now with the extra D3 for a week then get my hands on more.
Yup I broke down the first time too hearing me really for the first time was everything. I'm working on mimicry now to try and say more than just hello I need more its really addictive. I can sing somewhat too but I was a Tenor as a child doing Choirs but I find it a little difficult to do it in the right config its easier to do older music at this time like 1950s " alt="

Ah I totally understand my picture before was lifted from /r/TransBreastTimelines and put on a chaser site to the point I almost deleted my account it was very unpleasant.
WOW you realised I'm a lefty! I'm useless with my right hand would I have to do everything with my right like teeth brushing? Or just carrying stuff? I mean they match closer these days but that general difference is still there somewhat...
That's pretty high I know I got told off by a few other Transgirls that said I was way over the limit recommended by WPATH and I'll just ignore them if you don't mind considering Progesterone isn't exactly apart of their plan either. I went too high once mostly because I forgot if I had taken one already and had a horrible headache and a spot popped up so I think the E down regulated to T and caused me one.
I have no idea what my Vitamin B6 levels are I'll be cheeky to ask in my annual blood test. I think we are ok at such levels and its unique to the individual some have lower ceilings once they go to high some can go higher and some have better results with low dosages at least in all the girls I've spoken with. Though the common trend is dosages like ours are where the girls above D cups lay.
Well he's 10 now so its sat in the box for awhile I haven't asked her yet because I'm trying to get over what might be going on in her mind when I do. I don't mind lactating I've had that experience before when I moved from Pills to Patches for a little while. It was just because I was reading in Lotus and HelloDiDi and got interested in trying it out alongside Massages.
I've not ever had any weirdness with MSM and have moved between brands kind of often so I'm sure you'll be fine!

It'll take weeks (maybe months to reset the estrogen receptors).
