HRT symptoms that are very common but aren't usually mentioned during your first visit? (testosterone edition):
-- if you have grey hairs, they might spread (mine did A LOT wtf)
-- coochie stank for the first three weeks bc your uterus is exploding (no im kidding it's not like that but you have consistent bloody discharge for a while)
-- listening to creed
-- the balding is NOT that bad yall. It's not.
-- bottom growth is the first symptom for most people.
-- snail trail (need i say more)
-- people always say your libido goes up, and some say it went down for them. Personally, my libido itself didn't change. However, 1. the way that I experienced attraction changed. New feelings /emotions/thoughts unlocked. 2. The types of experiences I was interested in changed.
-- CYSTS. WHY DOES NO ONE TALK ABOUT THIS ONE. I know a girl who started E and got cysts in her arms and legs. I have always had breast cysts (pre-T), but since starting T I've gotten genital cysts???? It's very normal but what the f*ck.
-- listening to creed
-- being hot
-- hold me nowwww, im six feet from the eedge and iiim thinnkinnnnn
-- lord of the rings
-- you have to change the way you flick your bean (sometimes it's too sensitive to do that anyway)
-- your voice feels amazing once it drops ughhhh talking is so good.
-- talking too much/too loud hurts.
-- stay hydrated and sleep extra, you must have enough rest or it won't work and you'll feel like shit.
--dysphoria gets worse lowkey but you have to learn how to control your thoughts.
-- DO NOT DRINK. alcohol stops your testo from working properly. drink with your T cycle if you must, right at the end of it.
-- you lowkey feel like you have super powers during your first week and you feel amazing, and then you get used to it. (cis dudes live life on easy mode fr)
-- lord of the rings
-- you look hot
-- you age lowkey (you look hot)
-- Gondor calls for aid---
that's all i've got for now, thanks :) hope this helps someone.

also, some of the changes literally happen overnight. So don't worry about if it's working unless you're doing something wrong. Literally... you go to bed and you wake up looking like a different person. And then it happens again on another random night. And again.
