Quick question /lgbt so I've been on hormones for a month now and I'm taking 4mg of estradiol (2mg tablets). I just saw my doctor and she left my dose the same till i do more blood work in 3 months. From what I've read this dose is on the low end and I was just wondering if this is normal. Of course I'll still follow my doctors instructions but i was just curious about others experiences with hrt regimes. -pic unrelated-

i'm confused, are you taking 2 mg or 4 mg a day?
If you want to have nice round tits instead of conical snoopy breasts, a low dose of estrogen early on is on the safe side. Take too much early on, breast growth is too fast early on, which causes cone-shaped/tubular breasts.

It's 4mg, I was just referencing the individual tablet size. Thanks so much that's exactly the kind of information I was looking for <3
that isn't at all on the low end moreso in the middle, and 4mg of E within the 1st month is actually a lot.
you really shouldn't worry because your doctor knows better than anyone on 4chan does, we don't even know your levels.
I take 3mg of E a day and that's the perfect dose for me. As long as your estrogen is within the normal female levels you should be fine.

Yea of course, I just wanted to know others experiences I guess just cuz it was on my mind =3= I probably have a higher dose because I'm pretty big (6'2) and I'm in my early 20s. Anyway thank you so much <3

no prob, if u have any other questions I'd be happy to help
When did you get the last blood tests? Did you see the actual values?

Do you have any evidence for that claim?
I started on 6mg a day all in one go as prescribed by my endo. My boobs are rather well rounded and I'm 7 months in. I should probably also mention that my endo also started me on progesterone at the 3 month mark.
