I have a breast growth question. I have read and heard from multiple sources that I should not expect any changes in body shape in the first 3 months (and sometimes even beyond that point), that the fat redistribution won't happen overnight, etc etc. And so I was fully prepared to wait and not fret too much about when my boobs or hips were going to start growing.
But then, this week the bras that I bought well before beginning HRT and that had always felt snug and comfortable were not feeling so snug and comfortable anymore. I noticed they started leaving significant marks on my skin and the underwire was poking my sideboob and armpit a bit. I loosened the shoulder straps, which helped alleviate the problem a bit, but it still didn't feel right.
I didn't take any measurements before going on hormones, but then I remembered that early on I did take some pictures of my breasts, for future reference. I scrolled through my pictures, and then took off my clothes and stood in front of my mirror... and I gasped. There is a very significant difference, specially in the left breast. It's really noticeable, even with just a passing glance. It's not from weight; in fact, I lost a kilo since starting HRT.
I know that of course everyone is different and that there are exceptions to every rule; also, I am certain that if this is happening to me it has certainly happened to others. But I am still stumped. Has this happened to anyone out here?
I also noticed a significant hardening of the tissue in the centre, close to the areola; is that to be expected?
So yeah, I am obsessing with my boobs (boobsessing?) right now. I am sitting in bed topless, and every 30 seconds or so I look down to admire them. I am in awe. As if I needed another reason to be blissful.
EDIT: Just to add that next week I will have been 3 months on HRT (15/2).
