I recently started progesterone. Had to pause my weight loss goal temporarily bc of it, bc the body has to get used to the new hormone for a couple weeks. I woke up this morning without knowing what happened after I fell asleep and I was holding onto my husband's big arm. He wakes me up with kisses every morning... Just the euphoria I felt this morning was amazing. Being held by a strong man in bed feel amazing. And yes I'm feeling this bc the progesterone has relaxed my body and opened me up more emotionally. Estrogen alone actually makes me moody

Yo I just started taking progesterone. Last night was my first dose. I'm already feeling amazing. My mood feels great (I'm dieting hard so I often toe the line between feeling a lack of energy and plenty of it). I had an amazing night's rest. Happier and I feel stable

Unfortunately I live in an area and time where I cannot visually express myself in my clothes. I am forced to wear men's masculine clothes. I had to cut my hair too because I had bleached it and men don't typically bleach their hair. I am also losing a lot of weight to achieve a very feminine silhouette. My loved ones call me he and my dead name regularly. Life really sucks right now. I'm also 24 and in my prime. Soon I'll be reacting to a place where I can wear whatever I want and be myself, but shit just sucks rn. The only thing I look forward to is my hobby, my hair growing back and the weight on the scale going down every week. Ofc once I achieve my weight goal, I'll be slowly regaining my feminine curves back, but shit just sucks currently.

I've been on injections for about a year now. Before transitioning, while I was in highschool, I use to workout with weights a lot. Heavy weights. I got very muscular and big for my size. Anyway when I started transitioning, I finally figured out how to safely lose skeletal muscle mass and I've been doing so for pretty much the whole time I've been on hormones. I'm 24 now. Wanted to take estrogen when I was 19. Could get them until I was 22 I think, got off of them bc I was confused, got back on them then switched from the pill to the shot. Anyway I'm finally appearing more female now that I've reduced my muscles back quite significantly and I'm not going to stop until I look as if I've never picked up anything heavy ever
