5 and a half months, gonna make a semi organised progress report. tmi warning as usual
voice -
OCTAVES deeper than when it started. every time i think it might be done dropping i get a whole new wave of cracks hdfgjk
body hair - 
gettin pretty thick, especially in places where i had none before. i feel fluffy
facial hair - 
its there! the peach fuzz on my whole face is much thicker, and my shitty see thru moustache is a little more noticeable. nothing on my chin yet. apparently it can take like. two full years to get anything rlly visible so im trying not to rush myself emotionally even tho im impatient 😔 
period -
unfortunately my period is actually stronger than ever and i desperately wish it was possible to have more than like two appointments a year w/ my endocrinologist becuase i legitimately might want to look into oestrogen blockers... especially considering my levels are 700 out of the normal Max of 300
bottom growth - 
officially hit 5 cm when hard like. three weeks ago? it’s absolutely still doing stuff which is wild. it’s been “out” (ie not protected by hair or other anatomy) 100% of the time now for a good 3 months but BOY it sure fucking sucks to have what’s essentially brand new tissue Scraping On Everything I Wear hfgdsklhj
weird shit - 
hot flashes are real and they suck :( my face will go bright red and i’ll get really overwhelmed and overheated for a good 10 minutes sometimes. also when i start to sweat i still get those stabby prickles. apparently im not alone in this tho, just hoping it passes w/ time
and last but not least...
the first little bits of fat redistribution! this is one of the effects ive been the MOST excited for, as my hip dysphoria can often be worse than even my chest dysphoria (cause i feel like i cant hide it like i can w/ my chest). i noticed it at first when i rested my hand on my hip and felt it connect w/ a Bone surface much quicker than it did before, ie theres just less fat in the way on the tops of my hip bones. my silhouette is a LITTLE slimmer even tho i’ve actually put on a few pounds. the weirdest thing i’ve experienced is like. some vague. itchiness? and tenderness under the skin there? i can only assume its just like. my body is moving things around, it will probably feel a little bit like a healing wound...
