Day 258 – Busy Summer
Hello! I’ve been doing all kinds of things with my gf recently and I’ve been enjoying the time off. Last week we went out to Rockport, MA. It is a cool little area on the coast where there are lots of little shops. I got an awesome jacket for half off from this fair trade store called the floating lotus, definitely check them out! This is a picture of us out by the break water, excuse my horrible hair and manly expression.
Last week I started a project on some black pants that I got a tear in. I attacked them with some bleach and then got some dye and dyed the splotches purple and I think they turned out pretty good!. I also dyed some white shirts and a tank top, as well as a pair of my dad’s underwear XD I think they turned out pretty good and I will definitely try dying more clothes in the future!
As far as my transitioning goes, not a lot has happened lately. My breasts continue to develop ever so slightly but not nearly as much as those of girls on a higher dose of estrogen. I see my Endocrinologist again in 22 days so I should be on at least 2mg of estrogen by the end of the month. I am looking for some graphing software to show how different doses of estrogen and spironolactone effect the human body through measurements and weight.

Day 227 – Birthday!!
Hello!
Today I turned 22!…But really it was yesterday now that it’s 1:30 in the morning. I’ve been doing all kinds of things over the past few days. Yesterday I helped my girlfriend move out of her dorm and then we spent a few hours cleaning her room. She gave me a corset top she didn’t want which I absolutely love! You can see it in my new photo gallery.
For lunch I went to Acapolcos with my family for delicious mexican food and then I spent the rest of the day playing League of Legends with my girlfriend. I had the usual family party and got some nice gifts, but my big present is going to be a 2tb external hard drive. I need more space to put all my pictures and music!
I am going to update my timeline soon now that I have some new pictures. Things have been going well on the hormones, I am seeing some more breast development. My nipples are almost always tender :3 Anyways, I hope you enjoy the new pictures! I will post again soon.

Day 217 – A Light In The Dark
Hello everyone,
It’s been a few weeks since I posted anything so I thought I’d post an update. I’ve been doing well and my mood is staying much more stable, it seems like the Effexor is working! Over the past few weeks I’ve felt the sensitivity in my breasts coming back and I’ve notice a decrease in my sex drive.
With only a week left until finals I am scrambling to get all of my work done on time. I just got a bunch of online assignments done for my art history class, that is a big load off my back. I am thinking about building a rock climbing wall, or at least a bouldering wall. It would be great exercise for my upper body and especially my legs. Once I am done with classes I will have a lot more time to take pictures and start the process to get my name changed.
I am going to go watch Supernatural now, my girlfriend got my hopelessly addicted to it and I am watching the entire series starting from season one.
Take care!

Day 196 – Endo Appointment
Today I had an appointment with my endocrinologist. I had been taken off estrogen because my prolactin was elevated to 56 which is abnormally high and we needed to see if it was the estrogen causing it. Turns out the anti-psychotic I was put on when I went in the hospital is known to cause raised prolactin levels. I’ve since gone off said drug and my prolactin is now down to a safe 9. My psychiatrist also took me off the anti-depressants I was on and put me on 150mg Effexor. Because my prolactin is a safe level we decided to try going back on the estrogen to see if it stays stable. He put me back on 1mg of Estrace a day and he also upped my dose of Spironolactone to 200mg daily. Right now I am pretty satisfied with where I am. π

Day 190 – Update
Hello,
Things have been going pretty good for me right now. my depression is starting to lessen and I am enjoying life more. Though I am still having trouble in school. Tomorrow I go back to see my psychiatrist to see how my meds are working and on Friday I have another appointment with my endocrinologist. Hopefully I will be able to go back on estrogen but we will see.
Until next time,
Abbey
