Goddess, the jealousy is so real...
(self.mtf)
I am doing HRT but still no hips ๐ญ.
Trans female, post SRS here.
HRT can't give you bigger hips after your bone plates fuse together (after puberty) but, it can distribute fat after some time and dependent on your level of Estrogen vs Testosterone.
An alternative is that you can wear hip pads to emulate those dream hips, and get that figure.
Good luck, ~K
I'm not sure that's entirely true, my hips grew (and are still growing) even though I started at 20.
I heard that it got more complicated after 25 but anecdotaly some trans women have reported some hip bone growth after that.
Fat redistribution does the grunt of the work anyways...
My hips to waist ratio actually got worse on HRT because of weight gain...
I say live your life, unless you live in a truly hostile area where you could get killed then take HRT of you want to.
I'm gonna try to lose weight in the meantime, so when i do feel safe enough to try, i wont be fighting male fat distribution as hard. That and bigger thighs and butt. My legs are gonna be fuckin clouds, i already wear a larger size of thigh high sock and they're relatively lean ๐
