update: boobs

Remember fifteen months ago when I started progesterone? Well, I have three weeks' supply left, and I'm thinking I won't trouble Dr. Funnyname for a new prescription. Why not?

1. It's pretty much done what I wanted it to do. I haven't had to go bra shopping yet, but my breasts are a much nicer shape now: rounder, less pointy and flappy.
2. Waking up in the wee hours to pee like a horse is a drag. Progesterone makes you excrete salt.
3. Progesterone isn't without its risks, namely clotting and blood pressure. The sooner I'm off of it, the safer I'll probably be. It isn't meant to be a maintenance medication for anyone.
4. I don't know for sure if Dr. Funnyname would sign off on a new prescription, and he readily admits that he hasn't had experience managing trans women's hormone regimens.
5. One of the nice things about being a lesbian is that my sexual partners have realistic expectations about breasts. I'm just not a curvy gal, so I fit those expectations these days. Barely.
6. I have no ambitions in the adult entertainment industry.
