Breast Growth Concerns
I just started HRT two days ago. I know it takes a long time for breasts to come in and even longer to reach full growth. Been working out for years as a cis man attempting to gain muscle but never getting as big as I'd like. I've adjusted my macros many times in attempt to dial it in. I've also tried any number of routines (p90x, the Beast Body Workout, heavy lifting with low reps, etc), and now I do the below. My meals and macros are below; these I've adjusted slightly to include more of each as I'd added ingredients, so it's more a conservative estimate.
I meal prep and never miss a gym day. Breasts are fat tissue, and while genetics also play a large part, how would one suggest maximizing growth? Because I'm so lean, I worry about preventing my newly sought after gains. Should I increase/decrease a particular macro? In search of assisting my new form that'll come in months and the next few years, is there anything perhaps I should cut/add in my routine?
I appreciate any input, and I'm very much looking forward to being a fit girlie ❤️.
