How much does HRT change if you're already socially transitioned?

​

I'm already socially transitioned to everyone in my life. But not on HRT yet (I'm 23).

So I only wear women's clothes, I usually wear makeup to gatherings, I have long hair, i'm hairless everywhere and dont need to shave because I've done IPL for a while. I'm done with voice training. I have an androygnous build and I'm rather short. I get gendered basically 50/50 atp in public.

My parents are really transphobic and conservative, but have not really figured anything out as I've changed my appearance. I'm moving to a country where HRT is legal and so I'm planning to start.. But I'm wondering if it'd make it impossible to safely boymode?

I'm worried because I'm gonna go for a year and then they'll see me after so there might be a jarring change.. But i'm not sure what kind of change I should actually be prepared for?

I feel like if you go on r/transtimelines for mtf people they look obviously different because besides HRT they change a bunch of stuff about their appearance and thats impossible to hide. But I'm not gonna change anything. I already look like this and they're apparently fine with it..?

(not too worried about chest growth because both my mom and my sisters have almost none rip)

im literally only medically transitioning because of "society"

I'm trans. Mtf basically. Like definitively. But the weird thing is I dont really get body dysphoria because I kind of won the genetic lottery?

Im pretty much androgynous and slightly feminine looking in my face and my body, I just look like a skinny girl with no chest which,, considering I'm asian isnt even that out of the norm. Im not a 10/10 by any means but like,, being kinda below average doesnt give me a horrible feeling lol. I dont need hormones. Everyone already knows Im a girl and I dress as one and its like nothin lol.

But now as Im growing into an adult Ive started on them. Just cause of practical reasons. Im doing this so when legal stuff or formal stuff happens I can put down F, I dont have to worry about military drafts, I dont have to worry about like, employers discriminating against me once I graduate college if they think I'm a cis guy with long hair.

I think its kinda funny that like, conservative people always go on about how trans people should be happy with their bodies and whatever.. When Id basically be their poster child. But the weird dumb laws they built around their society are gonna force me to do medical stuff anyway.
