Update 2/21

It has been about a month and a half since I started hormones. On Tuesday my Endo called and upped my dosage of Spiro due to good blood work results. I'm now up to 200 mg. Since starting hormones, I'm beginning to really notice changes. My beard is coming in less and less. I've noticed my breasts are starting to hold their shape. I've been wearing bras off and on for about 8 years, which already had given me a decent A cup, but now I'm really noticing a strong A shape and slowly starting to fill a bra. My skin is starting to soften now. I really notice it on my arms. I also think I'm noticing slight changes in my face. My emotions are a roller coaster ride. As my wife puts it, I can get really bitchy. I've also noticed I'm easily on the verge of tears more often for no reason. I still don't have much of a libedo. When I do feel in the mood it doesn't last long. And when my wife and I do try to have sex, it takes almost 10 minutes to get me hard. I feel so bad that I am rarely in the mood. I know my wife has needs and I feel horrible that I haven't been filling them. I hope once I balance out things will get better.

Update

This past Friday I had my second Endocrinologist appointment.  We got there early due to the blizzard had already started and the roads were slippery.  Luckily they took us early.  The appointment went well for the most part.  My potassium was up in my blood work so I have to go for more blood work this Friday to recheck it.  If it goes down, my doctor will up my prescription of Spiro.  She asked if I had any breast soreness yet, which I had not.  She asked if I noticed any changes.  At the time, the only change was that I am a lot calmer.

That night my breasts and nipples started aching.  Guess they just needed to hear from the doctor that they were supposed to. ;P  So now I have a constant ache in my breasts and nipples.  No pain no gain right.  My wife noticed that my breasts are starting to hold shape.  I hadn't really noticed, but I believe her.  Every time I rub my chest because it aches, my wife smirks and says welcome to being a girl.  Again, no pain no gain.  I have started noticing more changes over this weekend.  I don't have to shave my chest, legs, or arms as often.  This morning I noticed my beard isn't growing as fast either.  So hopefully less shaving is needed as time goes on.  Also I'm starting to get pimples.  But they aren't coming to the surface, but I can feel them.  Ugh.  I hate pimples.  Course who doesn't.  Lastly I have noticed my odor changing.  My wife hasn't noticed yet.  Apparently only I can smell it.  Makes me want to shower twice a day if not more.

That's it for right now.  Can not wait for more changes to start happening.  And really gotta remember to start taking pics to document this.
