    Trans enby here.

    I’ve still got my “normal” levels of testostetone, but I’m taking finasteride to keep it from affecting my hair follicles while the estradiol does its work softening my skin and plumping up my chest.

    I probably could be a lot more feminine by this point if I had a full-spectrum anti-androgen like spironolactone or cyproterone acetate, but that’s not my transition goal. I’m actively seeking an androgynous appearance and itty bitty titties, so estradiol monotherapy with finasteride is working just fine for me.

      Right, but in the context of

      I read “Plump up my chest” to the tune of “Pump up the Jam”

      It’s stuck in my head now 😂
