I don’t know how I missed all of this. And I’m really surprised to hear PM doesn’t really work. That’s contrary to a lot of what I’ve read on here and other websites.
As for this HRT/NBE combo, that really scares me. I never intended to see a doctor about HRT. Not many people in my life know I’m into this lifestyle, so I’d like to keep it down to just some “gynecomastia.” I don’t want “transitioning” to be on my permanent medical record.
I was just kind of hoping that, with my already low T combined with some natural herbs, for some budding and very small boobs that will definitely be noticeable, but can easily be explained away as aging or a medical condition. Especially since I already had gynecomastia as a teen.
BN is mostly very nice, its diverse and welcoming and there's some really cool knowledgeable people here. That's why I have stuck around, BN is easier for talking about NBE science than most trans communities and I like it how we're such mixed bunch and I'm here to catch any closeted trans women looking for support and help with hormone sorcery.
PM
does work, but its slow and not really super duper awesome and it has blood clotting risk which has been unfortunately proven the dangerous way several times. I'm one of those who got DVT symptoms from it.
Not many are, to guys this is probably a life style, for me its a life and death, do or die situation and I'm very enthusiastic about what makes boobs happen. And full body feminisation in general, this obviously is a huge interest because I'm a transsexual (with build in weirdness of intersex condition.) woman and I'm not loaded with money so what ever I can do outside of plastic surgery is a huge win and that's where BN forum is invaluable information asset. Me and many others here are our own endocrinologists dictated by life situation, DIY hormone treatment is a viable path and very useful for men wanting to grow boobs and get feminine fat distribution. Its nothing to be scared of, there's plenty of information on how it works and how it can be cheaply and efficiently done. Finding a golden middle with dosages also allows the changes to be gradual and slow, I repeat that its never instant and never crazy dramatic. Anyway, worth looking into and considering depending on your needs.
Also don'tworry about growing boobs, you can have a LOT and it still can be played down as gynecomastia very easily. The condition is so typical for guys who wont get any kind of "suspicion" about their gender regardless of sporting quite a lot of boobs, you'll be fine. Ask Stevenator about that.

If that big tits fly under the radar when needed, you have nothing to worry about. You can have very androgynous body shape without it being weird.
When I was beginning my transition, I was already wearing was it 34F bra and people couldn't tell. And I've never been masculine looking much at all, except maybe for height and I was quite buffed out +5 years ago. But all that natural androgyny and quite a bit of boobs and wider than normal hips was completely invisible for quite some time. Its really crazy how peoples gender perception works. As long as they think they're dealing with a man, they see a man, even if there's a lot of obviously feminine traits.
