So, my endocrinology intake is swiftly approaching, in November. I'm excited and anxious. They would at least start me on testosterone blockers, right? Or is it more waiting?

I know I will still have to shave , until I have laser hair removal, but, will I be able to go longer than 10 hours without feeling stubble?

Will I be able to go more than one day without shaving my body hair without looking at my chest and arms in disgust?

I know YMMV, but I was just hoping things will start getting easier soon, like maintenance.

For me, nothing changed with my facial hair growth and I've been relying on laser. I'm 5 months on HRT, first week was just blocker.

I wouldn't bank on blockers effecting hair growth in the short term personally. Grab some nair for everything below the neck!!

Nair is great for not feeling stubble, make sure to get the sensitive one for the sensitive areas cause the burn is spicy.
