Question for AMABs who desire a more feminine body, but don't want to take HRT for whatever reason.
Suppose you could take HRT, but the effects would only be visible to you. Nobody around you would know you were taking HRT or treat you differently because of it.
Would you take it?

sure, but i wouldn't be happy to be seen as a man and misgendered etc.
> implying this isn't already my life
but it'd be worse idk

To be clear, my question was more-so geared towards those who are afraid to take HRT because of societal ramifications. In other words: taking HRT without the societal burdens and expectations that come with 'transitioning'.
Personally, I'd take HRT if I could go unnoticed (and I'm starting a SERM to try and do that), and I'm wondering if that is a common sentiment.

well I decided to take hrt in part bc I became very confident no one would notice. And no one has noticed, not sure it was a good idea tho I kinda feel like a freak

>>40298252
this is weird but i can get behind it as a boymoder (its basically just perma-boymoding anyway). so you dont have dysphoria over how you are perceived and its merely a self-image thing?

>very confident no one would notice
What made you so confident in that?
How have you hidden breast growth, for instance?

>>40298252
SERMs really aren't a good long term solution. You can bank on the reality of that many post puberty trannies won't get large breasts in general, or you can try the potential honscience of early prog for the potential early end to breast growth

it’s mostly due to being Asian, after studying lots of timelines I determined hrt has a minimal effect on Asians. And there was a study that said most trannies don’t get above A cups, its really not hard to hide

>so you dont have dysphoria over how you are perceived and its merely a self-image thing?
Strangely I do have dysphoria, it's just... weird dysphoria. I love my name, I don't mind my pronouns (he/him), and I kinda like my voice.
With that said, I'm relatively feminine right now. If that changed my dysphoria would likely be extreme. That's kind of what it comes down to in my case. I can't stomach the idea of growing into a 'man', and quite frankly, I think I'd rather die.
With all that said, I'm not super crazy about breasts, but part of me sorta wants them in a weird way.

>SERMs really aren't a good long term solution.
It's mostly an experiment. I'm doing a non-standard regimen, so I may have better mileage than most. It's mostly a science experiment though.
>100mg raloxifene
>25mg relugolix (might boost)
>4mg 17a-estradiol (a less feminizing estrogen)
>1mg 17b-estradiol (standard estradiol, might reduce)
If it doesn't work out, I'm going to try topical DHT gel to prevent breast growth. If that doesn't work, I probably will just go with the honscience bullshit.
We shall see. I'll likely post on here with results at some point.

Damn. Kind of wish I could count on A cups. Honestly wouldn't mind those, A cups are cute.

>>40298222 (OP)
Well no because as of right now I'd still look like a gigahon, I'm a fat fuck and need to drop the pounds before even considering touching hormones.
