    Very jealous. I’m also my first week in on Spiro and E (and Finasteride, because boo hair loss) and I feel… Nothing? That said. I got to try out my first real outfit. Turns out I like skirts and shrugs. Even better when the skirt has pockets! I’m glad things are working for you, though. As with everyone on this journey, YMMV. Enjoy it!

          Good luck with Spiro, it’s not recommended in Europe because of its link to higher chances of cancer and strokes. I was given a replacement once the UK NHS gender clinic took me in, of Decapeptyl.
          I used to take 100mg of Spiro every 12h. I ended up blitzing my T into oblivion aha
          Hormone alteration isn’t directly related to body size, though - you only need as much as needed to drop your body’s production of certain hormones. This requires blood tests to monitor.
