      Did your brain pog out immediately when you started on it? I've heard it's like a switch flips and that seems super affirming

          It was the same for me, I could tell I was mad or sad or content but now I can put words to what's making me feel that way and emotions have much more nuance than pre-HRT which were like just one of 4 categories and that's it.

          Unfortunately that's the thing that takes the longest 😭 I didn't notice much for the first two years or so really. These days I'm a C cup and am so happy, so patience is key!

            don't forget to take real measurements and use the bra size calculators! C cups are in reality rather small and properly sized bras fit so much better!

            (if you're already doing this, carry on)

              yeah, I've been measured a couple times in addition to doing it myself. I'm sized properly.

              a word of advice: if a woman describes to you a part of her body she is really happy with the size of, don't come along and call their breasts "rather small" 🙃

                sorry didn't mean it like that. a lot of people don't know to get measured properly and end up using bras that are too small cause companies want to make money off of fewer sizes.

                  I figured as much, maybe just err on the side of not making comments about people's body size or shape.

                  you are right though, companies don't want to make a good variety of sizes. I was stuck in a couple sizes that were super hard to find for a while. now I can just get a cheap bra at target if I need, which came in handy on a trip recently
