Estrogen
Hi I am a 16 year old female that has already gone through puberty and I think I still am going through it?.. but I would like to know if it is possible for me to take estrogen to help soften my features and change my appearance. Growing up, I got misgendered a lot so I would like to know if it is possible for me to take estrogen.

Re: Estrogen
Hi User5678, welcome to the boards!
It can be really painful to be misgendered, so I understand why you would want to change your appearance. Cis women do sometimes take hormonal medication to manage certain health conditions, or for birth control, but it may not cause the effects that you want. Would you tell us more about what you want to change?
