    It felt very surreal to me because I was gatekept for over 4 years and never thought I would ever get them until one day they were just lying in my hand. The first 2 weeks I had a lot of excess energy because my hormone blockers caused my T levels to spike before going down to rock bottom. After that the first physical changes started to happen and gave me the feeling that I was finally allowed to start my life (and a lot of tit pain of course).

    As for mental changes: I expected there to be significant mood swings and maybe some changes in my personality but maybe I’m just an outlier but I never got those. My emotions shifted a bit and my already low libido completely tanked, that’s it. It could be that my T levels were always really low and that my body just didn’t have to deal with such a big change as trans people with high starting levels do.
