I did not choose to transition, hadn't planned on it, never gave it much thought. I was in denial when I was "dabbling" with hormones found on the internet. I found myself taking the next step and going to a doctor for the proper medical supervision. My visit revealed very low levels from the online hormones, and started with the estradiol injections. What a difference! Not only have I seen much more physical changes, but had not realized how powerful HRT is in affecting my mind and emotions. I'm a girl! The proper female levels of hormones coursing through my body has me embracing everything feminine. Loving the changes in my body and craving for more. The "girlie thoughts" no longer scare me, but now excite me. I am not in a favorable position to be able to come out full-time. Yet I am both pleased and worried with the changes in my body. My breasts have really blossomed, certainly cannot be mistaken for male "moobs". Definitely female breasts, past that point of no return. The plan was to be able to stay stealth for awhile, maybe pause my HRT if necessary. I cannot bring myself to do that, loving how I am more female with every passing day I've been cross dressing for a while now, and wanted to go a little further with my desire to know what it would feel like to have real breasts. A couple of months of HRT (estrogen and blockers) wouldn't be too noticeable, yet I would have a little bit of an effect. A dear friend of mine kept encouraging me, having transitioned herself.
