that's likely an effect of dysphoria, friend.
Hmm, maybe. However, we have noticed their face fat shifted and became more conventionally femme, whereas ours hasn't from what we can tell.
Our boobs have also not gotten as big as most trans femmes who post their stuff online, sadly. Not sure if it is because we messed up and took progesterone too early or what, but they aren't that big and aren't a good shape ioo, not round emough, slightly triangular.
see, I felt this way too, but I've realized that, for me, the issue is dysphoria plus seeing the changes happen gradually, so I don't see that big change like I have in other people.
the general guidance is that we transfems max about a cup size less than our mom and/or sisters, and it tends to get spread out differently – mine are also slightly triangular, which is a totally normal breast shape for women without large boobs, even cis women.
Yeah, you may be correct about the face, we don't take pictures or look in the mirror often so might not have seen changes over time.
Ah, well, we aren't sure what size our cis women biological relations are and it feels weird to ask especially because they are transphobic and right-wing, but yeah, maybe. Thanks for the info, this might help us.
Now onto how to fix the dysphoria of never being able to have gentials that do all we wish they would, nor the ability to get pregnant.
