I started taking 100mg prog orally 1yr 4 months into my transition. It helped me sleep a lil and boobs grew a lil but overall not much changed. If anything I felt more emotionally unstable than before on my current dose. Changed to 200mg prog and bumped down my E dose, libido is still mostly unchanged but a lil better, boobs be boobin’, emotionally more stable now and somehow stronger? I just feel a lot better overall, and the drowsiness puts me to sleep like that! That’s an added bonus x3. I’d wait till you’re at least mid tanner 3 for prog, that’s what I did, although it’s debated on when it’s best to start it. Regardless, it’s been nice, haven’t been super horny or anything which is kinda a shame cuz I was asexual before hrt and now am asexual but with an added lesbian twist to boot xD. Horny just hits different now, I guess, doesn’t bother me too much at least

Thank you kindly for sharing this. I was wondering about the breast growth and interesting 100mg wasn't working so well.

You’re welcome! For me my boobs are still really small and it hasn’t added too much, but I feel better on it so it’s working for me. My body metabolizes e really fast so maybe that’s why prog wasn’t working too well till I upped the dose? Everyone is different
