Progesterone...and carry letters

[Trinity]

Came up at my binary trans aa meeting.

Anyone on progesterone for boobs?

And...anyone have a carry letter from their shrink saying they have gender dysphoria and their ids conflict with their presentations? And need to use the target gender bathroom?

Im getting that letter...finding out whats in it next week.

I am on Progesterone and quite happy with it. I feel that my breasts have filled out more (particularly the inferior portion - previously in profile mine looked like they were resting on a shelf.) My nipples and aerolae developed nicely.

I thought about going on progesterone. Not on it yet but I think I am gonna ask for it next time I see the doc. Have a feeling he will prolly say no but we'll see.

I do have a carry letter from my shrink. It basically is a whole typed page of paper explaining things, that I am trans, that part of rle is to live the role of a woman for a year , bathroom included, blah blah blah, you know, that type of stuff.

I try to avoid going to the bathroom unless it is absolutely necessary so haven't had to use it or show anyone it yet. It's not a legal document, offers no real protection if you do get into some shit from using the women's room. It's basically just a bluff, bring it out if someone; another woman, a manager or someone similar, or a cop even, questions you on it; they may let you off, may not tho.

New york theyd have to accept it.

Re p..do your boobs go flat if you stop?

Do they leak?

I can't speak to that as I haven't been off it since starting in 2014. Some doctors will prescribe and others won't. I do also feel that it helped me a lot mentally and is the reason I was able to get off an SSRI plus actually feel okay about my body (those who know me from back on another site know what a nasty state I was in shortly after SRS - loads better today.)

I had no idea carry letters were still a thing. I haven't heard about them since my early attempts to transition in 1994-9.

It was mentioned by an mtf friend. Condidering my fluidity socially and also being bisexual, it could solve some problems if I get read in the ladies room.

Thanks for the response, and so glad you are better! I personally doubt that I will ever do the surgeries.
And I want real boobs. They are sore, still growing.
