Trying hard to trust the process, and while I have seen other expected changes in skin, hair, and mood, I am getting anxious that nothing is happening under my shirt. I had some minor sensitivity within the first two weeks, but never anything painful.

This Friday will be 6 weeks on HRT. 2mg Est, 4mg Prog, 200mg Spiro daily.

Edit: thanks for talking me off the cliff everyone, I’m much less anxious now 😅

    Haven’t read all of the other comments or seen your hormone levels but your doc starting you on 200mg spiro is diabolical, i started on 50 and most start between 50-100. everyone is different so maybe you need that much but i’d talk to your doc about that.

    As for the actual question, it took me like 8-10 weeks and ymmv. I also started on 4mg estradiol/day rather than 2. Also make sure you’re eating enough for fat redistribution. You’ll get there girl, don’t worry.

      does sound like a bad (or malicious) doctor, they shouldn’t be starting someone at the max dose … especially since spiro can cause serious side effects.
