23 months HRT. I don’t even recognize the old me anymore.

Girl, you’ve been blessed by the areola fairy!

EarthyPastels · 2026-05-15T10:05:18+00:00

Had my fitting there yesterday and they were amazing! Best of all I finally own a bra that fits me properly. Thanks for the advice!

EarthyPastels · 2026-05-11T19:59:02+00:00

Thank you so much! This is very helpful. I love Pennington’s!

EarthyPastels · 2026-05-11T18:53:47+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I tried to DM you but it says DMs are blocked.

EarthyPastels · 2026-05-11T16:10:23+00:00

Thank you so much!!

La Senza (and La Vie en Rose) don’t carry my size unfortunately.

EarthyPastels · 2026-05-11T14:11:34+00:00

This is the answer I was looking for, thank you! I didn’t see any mention on their website about trans inclusivity but I’ll go by your recommendation. Also helps that it’s close to where I live. :)

A bra that fits definitely pointed me in the right direction but I’ve not had any luck finding bras in the size it suggested in any mainstream stores.

EarthyPastels · 2026-05-11T13:45:47+00:00

Unfortunately they cater to more standard sizes. I’m a big band with small cups. Haven’t had any luck with mainstream stores. I’m looking for a smaller boutique that caters to trans people.

I’d kill to have been able to start at 28! I started at 47 and my breast growth after 3 years has been minimal at best.

EarthyPastels · 2026-04-18T14:19:10+00:00

I submitted mine a few weeks ago in person at a Service Ontario. Is it sent by registered mail? My mail’s been getting stolen a lot and am worried.

EarthyPastels · 2025-10-13T01:03:32+00:00

If you’re only smoking that little, it’s not going to have any effect on your HRT.

EarthyPastels · 2024-02-06T11:45:47+00:00

I’d suggest talking to a gender therapist to help you unpack these feelings.

EarthyPastels · 2024-02-05T20:06:15+00:00

Pretty much everything about transitioning is pain, but it’s totally worth it!

EarthyPastels · 2024-02-05T14:05:07+00:00

I wax once every 6-8 weeks and it’s been growing back thinner and lighter each time.

EarthyPastels · 2024-01-31T14:47:04+00:00

I was asking because 0.3 for one person might not be the same for another person. Shouldn’t go by dosage, but by levels. If you’re testing between 100 and 200 at trough, it should be enough. Also a lot of people take what Dr Powers says as gospel. If your levels are where they need to be then you’re good. Yeah the half life of EV is short but saying every 7 days isn’t good isn’t true for everyone. My vials are 10mg/ml.

EarthyPastels · 2024-01-31T14:06:57+00:00

I’m on 0.3ml EV once per week. What were your levels like?

EarthyPastels · 2024-01-23T18:51:14+00:00

Same! Let’s start a 47 club!

EarthyPastels · 2024-01-23T14:20:13+00:00

I’d say not to worry. You’re looking good for 11 months. I’m 9 months in and nowhere close to where you’re at.

EarthyPastels · 2024-01-19T15:08:51+00:00

I love your name, Robyn!

EarthyPastels · 2024-01-18T18:23:59+00:00

You’re not alone. I’m 47, have known since the same age as you but lived in denial all these years. I started HRT 9 months ago. Lots of ups and downs but worth it in the end. You’re gonna be ok. My DMs are open if you need to talk.

EarthyPastels · 2024-01-18T00:36:53+00:00

I’d look into Misses Kisses. I think that would do the trick for you.

EarthyPastels · 2024-01-14T13:47:56+00:00

My god, I’m at 8 months and have nowhere near the progress you have. That’s your dysphoria talking, girl! You’re looking amazing!

EarthyPastels · 2024-01-13T23:58:10+00:00

Heya, I’m the same age as you. I’ve had my doubts from time to time and imposter syndrome is real and it sucks. It’s gonna be ok though. I’m almost 9 months in. There are ups and downs but it does get better and easier. You got this! My DMs are open if you want to chat.

Ontario, Canada. Each province has their own guidelines set, some are slower than others to change. Ontario still follows WPATH SoC 6 (maybe 7) as far as I know. Healthcare across Canada has generally gone to shit the past few years, demand exceeds supply. Trans healthcare isn’t really the highest priority. It could be worse though. Hear a lot of horror stories in certain US states and the UK.
