Not Seeing Desired Changes on Feminizing Hormones? Do This 3 Things!

Dr. Z discusses three things you can do if you don't see the desired changes on feminizing hormones. Expectations on feminizing hormones and what one can and cannot get are huge. A lot of people put a lot of stock into HRT results—in Dr. Z's opinion, some put way too much stock. She did a video about the problem with overemphasizing surgical transition; in this case, she feels that sometimes people overemphasize what hormones can and cannot do. All of these things end up sadly being detrimental on your path to your authentic self—detrimental in a way where it starts to weigh on you when you don't see the results you want.

Sadly, there is a lot of misinformation out there on the internet about what hormones can and cannot do. There are people who put pictures out there that are photoshopped and through filters—you don't really see the full scope. There's seldom anybody talking about the mid-transition period (the most challenging period). Everybody just suddenly says "this is me before and this is after—oh wow, look at this amazing transformation" without discussing that a lot of other things went into the transformation other than just hormones.
