Today is day 14 of being under estradiol(i started decapeptyl 2 months ago). I feel a bit more tired than before and feel like my hairs are a bit smoother(when i brush them). So i want to know, what could i expect from the next weeks ?

Edit : i just found out my nipples are more sensitive than before.

Congrats sis!

I just hit week 5 with estradiol patches. For me in the last few weeks physically:

one of my nipples has been very sensitive, the other only mildly.

my body emitted absolutely no odor for the first 30 days on the HRT and then last week one morning i just had a new totally different body odor. It goes lovely with the feminine deodorant products and i'm very chuffed about it because I smell a cute girl nearby but then she's me!

My facial hairs are noticeably growing in slower now which is nice i get hardly any five o'clock shadow. (from the spiranolactone though not the E, also i have zapped my face a couple times with a braun IPL which it says not to do but reviewers said does work and hasn't hurt me yet)

Either my pores are smaller or the skin care routine is working bc my skin is super smooth.

my hair is definitely improved but i switched from 1 old spice product to 3 sheamoisture products and have been doing scalp massages so idk how much of that is from the E.

orgasms are different and the exciting parts of porn are very different

mentally:

I feel super peaceful and connected in general my anxiety is a lot less, I'm talking to people in shops more and have been making friends. My taqueria lady and I exchanged names today and she's going to help me with my spanish classes. Lessons started today! Before E I was pretty withdrawn and depressed a lot so it's really nice to feel so good every day.

I have been doing laps at the park every day and prisoner squats every day, I just added flex arm hang and bench dips to my park mornings and all of that is helping me fit into the girl clothes nicer so that is also really helping my mood and ability to interact with others. I hated exercise before but i really really enjoy self care now and seeing the gains.
