I have tried alot over the years, I think my body core temp was to low for BO to work with me.  I used Amazon PM and SP and got no where.  I switched to barlowes PM (1500 / day,  500 morning, 500 mid day,  and 500 night) with RR powder (1000 in the morning or at night with a spirment or green tea, cinnimon and MSM), and things are changing.

At first, I was like everyone else, bring on the breasts. Then I started digging the better mood,  smoother skin, and my waist is slimming a little.  This is what I am sticking with.

Despite being bisexual, I have not had a relationship with anyone for a few years. I am managing to be alone. Sometimes I feel like feeling a man's hug, but it soon passes. I have never had a boyfriend, I have had several girlfriends and a wife. Appearance has nothing to do with who we are. When I was married, I was a faithful member of the church, and very dedicated to my faith. I always dressed very masculinely, until I decided to change the coin. I used to be a Baptist and a Seventh-day Adventist. Today, I no longer go to church because I know that my presence would not be pleasant for most people, but for me, I would like to go. I don't go out of respect for others.

I was extremely bisexual for about 20+ years. So much so that I honestly thought I was gay, but I adore the love, beauty and companionship of women and the unmistakable balance they bring to my life.

I too miss the Church. The reason I don't go anymore is the one local Church I really found to love & enjoy, literally outed me as Trans to my absolute horror and I could not return. I thought I was being stealth, but some Churches can be full of busy-body Karens.

That was a little over five years ago, and to my great comfort I dove head-first into Bible study at home. My initial motivation was finding truth in this upside down world that we live in today, and the knowledge I've gained over the last many years has brought me incredible peace.

I apologize that your initial presence here slipped past my radar, and I didn't offer you a proper welcome. I hope you enjoy your time here and there is a lot of research that Lotus has shared that can help you achieve your goals.

Best of Luck to You

I am not really able to say how well PM/RR works as I have no experience with it, however others say it works great for them.

In my country is needed a long time (years) to have the right to buy hormones, it is because I decided try that way. Only buy hormones in pharmacy who is alowed by a medician. Even women only can buy pills to prevent being pregnant if have an medician autorization. As have almost three years that I have appointment with doctor, maybe in more six months I will have the right to buy the blocker and estradiol almost for free.. that is the unique advantage, and to have the right to do exams for free. But they said that we lost the libido... it is not good to me. For a while, I'm fine, I have erection and libido is perfect, even better than before.

Beutiful body! Congratulations! I think that to me, creams works great, better than herbs, because it has bioidentical hormones. What is the benefits of MSM?

Thank you for the kind words! The faith is an inner thing, I think we can develop it alone. The church to me was only to socialize, there are too much prejudice to people like us in religious spaces but it can't make us to give up. There are inclusive churchs as option. I hope you find a place to be fine and to be with others that know how to respect and cultivate relationship with people even they aren't like they are. Sometimes I like to find  a good place, but most of time I'm feeling well alone.

I switched to estradiol and an anti androgen for two reasons, one, I can get it under a doctors care so they can monitor my hormone levels and two the prescriptions and lab work will be covered under my insurance...

Hi Tomi66, is the estradiol that you take the same quantity all the days of the month or you do the different amount like as the produced by a female body? I was reading that during the menstrual period the estrogen is low, so after that it raise to high levels, than it go down again during ovulation period.

It's the same all the time. 2 mg every 12 hours. Basically 2 times a day 12 hours apart. Finding a good time to take it, given my job has me in different time zones, was the most difficult adjustment.

Thanks for share  ! I was thinking about something, I was on the gas station in the line to pay, with my car there, so I could see a woman bery high two times in front of me in the line, And I thought, what a tall woman... when she was there to pay, I could rear her voice and realized that she was a trans woman, so she paid and went to outside to fill her fuel, sou the man in front of me paid too and went, so I paid end went outside to take the thing and put on my car to fuel, but it was not working, so I went back there  to talk to the woman who sell, and the transgender woman was there too to do the same complaint, I was thinking, why two transgender woman in te same place have the same problem... was the woman joking with us, or booling? It was a unconfortable to me to see that this issue happens just with us... Another day, I was on the subway, and the train stoped and didn't run again for some minutes, I begin to hear something hapening outside, so I put my head out to see what was happening, and I could see a tumult there, so I decided to went there to know what was happening. I asked a man, and he said me that A woman like me was insede when a man becaming to say offensive words to her, after insisted for a time doing that, she went over him and gives him a trashing, all the people there was talking that it was well done...

I'll answer some questions that came up in this thread. Firstly, you do not need to mimic a XX cis female hormone cycle, stable levels very likely work and feel better.

MSM is important part helping to build connective tissues and keep growth hormone and growth factor levels boosted. It works the best when combined with vitamin D3 and calcium cirtrate. There's extensive posting about this combination found in the Project X thread if you want to read into the details, if not, just take my word for it. I've done it for several years now and found it to be one of the best ways to supplement HRT to help breast development.

For dosing you can think taking something like 4000iu/100mcg D3, 3000mg MSM and 750mg Calcium citrate daily.

I was thinking about something... I have a problem with me, I always have desire to be like a girl, but during my live I have had a lot of girlfriends, so today, that I decided to be feminine, the girls doesn't look at me the same way. They come near me and sometimes even change clothes near of me, but to have a relationship with me, no. Almost every day (or night) I dream that I am having a relationship with a girl. I fear never be possible to me to have a relationship. A woman who see a person like me, at first think that I like men, and if I tried to begin something, they think, I don't want a "man" like that, who is like a woman... The man when look at me think only one thing: Sex. Never relationship, so... I fear to be a loneless people for ever... During the day I'm working, making things, when I went to my bed I was whatching netflix, but when everything turn off... inside of me a thing are alive and that thing appears to be male. would I be imprisoning my 'old' or "other" me inside of me? Will I never have a relationship that make me happy with? Will I be happy in the future being alone? Sometimes I toutch my own body, my new curves, and think: "what a hot girl"... but it is strange the same way, because there's no change of energies... I don't know where this is going...
