It just says estradiol and it's 2 mg taken twice a day.

The doctor didn't seem to be concerned about that. Plus that's what they used to do prior to T blockers; I believe the method was called estradiol monotherapy.
But I can look into it more to see what the risks are.

Had my doctor's visit on Monday and got my prescription for E ordered that same day. It should be arriving early next week. Am still nervous about it, but I think this will help me feel even more like me. And I'm excite to look and feel even prettier.

I've been trying to decide that myself. Even though my first thought is, "That's not me," when I see my old photos, I feel I should leave them out there for people/world to see. Part of it is not wanting to feel like I'm hiding my past and the other part is to maybe help others realize they can do this, too. And/or show my less open-minded friends and family that transitioning isn't a bad thing.
Idk how successful I'll be with that last one, but I feel I should at least try.

I am quite lucky to have met them, I will admit. In a way they helped save me, so I'm very appreciative of them.

I've used removal cream on my face and nether regions. While I've never had 100% success with it, it does still make a significant difference. And then if you follow it up with shaving, you'll have the smoothest shave you've ever experienced.

Not OP, but I started growing my hair out in late '22. During Summer '23, it started to look more feminine. I looked in the mirror randomly that summer and I had to stop and look. Because what I saw, for the first time in the 30 years I've been on Earth, made me instinctively smile. I didn't want to stop looking because it just felt so happy seeing how I looked.
And it's only encouraged me to be more fem. I just need to move to a location where I can safely be me.
