I got them from an internal medicine doctor who also does gender services on Tuesdays. They didn't test my estrogen and testosterone at my first appointment but they did do other tests. I am getting my blood drawn again in two weeks and they are going to test estrogen and testosterone then.
Girl, I've been on HRT for over a decade. If you wish for breast pain, your wish is already granted.
