The Truth About HRT & Rapid Breast Growth!

Dr. Z discusses a fear you may experience starting feminizing hormones, particularly in regards to what may be perceived as immediate breast growth, what that fear is about, and gives you a little bit of cautionary advice and feedback. She's seen this with so many of her individual clients. This is going to be specifically about feminizing hormones.

When individuals go on feminizing hormones, a lot of times the clients she works with (at least) start on feminizing hormones before they even come out, before they even step into social transition. One of the main reasons why we do feminizing hormones first is: one, first and foremost, to alleviate gender dysphoria, to alleviate that mental angst, that mental turmoil, to quiet down the noise, to create a space of inner clarity from which then a person can make better decisions, can make more clear decisions to move forward.

Another reason why feminizing hormones is a great way before even social transition is because the changes are going to take a while. For that reason, none of the changes are going to be so apparent that a person can continue their lifestyle without anybody asking questions or without anybody raising an eyebrow.
