Your hips are probably set around age 20. I think it's mostly things like the skull and some vertebrae that continue to fuse for a few more years

I am trying to find information on how to tell if the pelvic bones have healed. I probably need an x-ray
In 2022 I will be 20 years old

So, Almas, let's try this again. The question wasn't whether you liked my look.

The question is has HRT restored huge amounts of hair for me, along with giving me a much nicer texture:

Thank you. We have lots of moody folks on here today. One thing that I said to another person your age is that I chose this but you guys feel forced into this by fate as you mentioned earlier and that is a less favorable mind-set. Also since you are so young, you get none of the rejuvenation effects which can be amazing. I know this is all hard to process. I had to leave my marriage to figure it out and there are no guarantees but I think I know what my ex likes and it wasn't balding:)

Bridgeburn first used CPA and 1.5mg E from Estrogel? He used only low doses of E from the gel for a while and it worked. Did I understand correctly?

Until late summer: 75mg Bicalutamide
From September: 150mg Bicalutamide
January 2022: surgery to remove gynecomastia
in 2022 I will try 100mg Bicalutamide and 1.5mg E from Estrogel: HRT in low doses
I will also try HRT cycles with Lena's injections, HRT for 4-6 months, once every 2 years

This is my plan.

I started to go bald at the age of 16. It was in the fall of 2018. Until winter 2020, my hair quality was deteriorating, but it remained at a bearable level and I could style my hair. Thus, in theory, I can restore my hair on HRT every 2 years. Ideally, do it in 3 months, if the damage is not too severe. I wonder if it is realistic not to lose muscle during this period. I will try to exercise during HRT. I will keep you informed if I can keep fit

Muscle loss is slow so you shouldn't have too much of a problem with a periodical regimen.
Do you microneedle? If not you should.

It can also feminize your face unpredictably. It's not a fact that these effects are particularly suitable for you: someone becomes a beautiful femboy, and someone turns from a swollen and too feminine

I also learned that on HRT, the pelvic bone begins to turn forward, that is, it gets into a female position due to the ligaments and muscles. I suppose that it can even reduce the height, but I am already short (169cm)
HRT on an ongoing basis is definitely not an option. It is hoped that in 4-6 months there will be no irreversible changes, and the fat will go away again when I am done.

I don't know, maybe you should try Minoxidil? Not now, in the future. I still have nothing to lose
Maybe it will prevent fibrosis. Also in improved blood flow, androgens are harder to bind to the receptor
But I doubt Minoxidil will help. Moreover, it does not improve the quality of hair like estrogen.

I understand your point, feminizing isn't geat for everyone. If you do try minoxidil, try not to get it on your face, forehead etc. Take the time when applying it. I was careless with it (even going to bed with hair wet with it) and it developed loads of fine lines around my forehead, my skin in general felt older. Oral I still felt the negative skin effects, but some don't report these sides so I'm not sure. There's a minoxidil alternative which is soon to release it's third phase results:
There are a lot of mixed opinions about it, but it may work great in combination with anti-androgen therapy.

If my breasts were removed, I would be using HRT right now. But I have to wait until I can do breast surgery before HRT.
OK. When my plan C changed from a shot in the temple to HRT, I felt better.

@JaneyElizabeth
Let me go back and read it but that was initial titration. He was using at least 6mg SL later on plus an AA and the trend was always upwards if I recall correctly. I am still finding plenty of people on reddit among MtF's with no growth at all according to them so I don't know if that is enough but CPA works very well for hair for some.

I am thinking about which therapy to use between HRT cycles so as not to return to high doses of estrogen as long as possible. Moreover, the therapy should be cheap. There is such an option: 75mg Bicalutamide + 1.5mg E from Estrogel. I have no idea if that dosage does anything. Although Bridgeburn had an improvement when he started with her

I'm pretty sure Bicalutamide isn't working. I go bald at the same rate despite the fact that I use it. It feels like I'm not doing anything. I repeated the story of Jacob Williams. HRT is the only way out. The main thing is that it works and I do not repeat the history of franzliszt
Growing hair with HRT won't be a win. I wanted to win without radical treatment, so that everyone could repeat it. But now I can't even help Pls, because his hips have definitely not healed. Even my thighs may not be fused together, I don’t know that yet
I lost the battle, friends.
