Okay, all the notes have become advice SO:
Drink a hydration aide and a probiotic or gut health drink of your choice on the daily. We're all, myself included, sick of being scolded for smoking but if you smoke darts you have to stop. Nicotine fucks your liver's ability to actually make use of the estrogens passing through it, and it causes your liver to break them down faster and convert a bunch into useless shit. Prog can do sweet fuck all if you're not offering what it needs to begin with. Also, you're murdering the girl you'll be every day after today and that's a fucked thing to do.
For now though, patches and certain estrogen tablets taken sublingually skirt the liver and go straight into your blood, though you will need to check your specific make and double check in the instance of generic scripts. If its compounded differently from the name-brand prescription you need to know if it can still be used under the tongue. Personally I take my t blockers, wait ~90 minutes and then take my sublinguals.
Get your E directly into your blood, permacrush your T levels, (I feel amazing around 2.7pmol/L and I make sure my Dr's know I'm aware how low that is) and THEN start on progesterone as a suppository. I have no experience or knowledge of topical progesterone cream but I'm told that works too, and can be useful for evening out particularly uneven breast growth HOWEVER THAT WILL HAPPEN ON ITS OWN, 99.5 TIMES OUT OF A HUNDRED. You just have to wait, they WILL be noticeably uneven at points, potentially for some time, and it is COMPLETELY NORMAL for developed breasts to be different sizes and hang differently.
Official prescribing guidelines AU is to wait ~6months to start prog, personally I do not believe that's long enough, but obviously its ultimately up to you. You can try cycling prog if you like, I have bpd and that was an actual fucking nightmare but I've read testimony from some transfems for whom it worked great. You will need to tell whomever does your blood work that your estrogen is going straight into your blood, otherwise they will freak out at the insane levels if you ever get a test done in the first three-ish hours after it enters your system.
My only other advice is find a durum flour you like and get good at making pizza, the most expensive parts are the meat and cheese and you only actually need one of those. Plus, having like $12 in your bank account and knowing you can make a week's worth of pizza a la bullshit ft. the forgotten things in your pantry is a Big Security Feeling.
oh also jesus christ if you boof your prog RUN IT UNDER WARM WATER FIRST, even just for a split second.
