Something like a growth and progress diary [Great just what a grrl needs, another diary to write in!] that will include flashbacks and pointers to other relevant materials. Something like a "Stream of consciousness" with a moving target. This is as much about my growth and recovery as it is about sharing parts of myself with other people who may have been through similar things. No matter what you've been through, or where, or when, know that you are NOT alone!

Nearly a month now and she's taking another step . . .
. . . forward! I've been taking 500mcg of Estrofem since the begining of the month with great success and decided it was time to move up a step. So, three days ago I increased to 1mg a day and doubled my dose of blocker. The result, I feel great! I'm making my way further along this path I'm on and each step I take is better than the last one before. I didn't anticipate the the increased dosage of Estrogen would make so big an improvement, I am however pleased it has! My creativity, sensitivity, feelings, and sense of general well being have increased. I'm slowly moving up to "standard" doses, and looking forward to getting there, transition or not Estrogen is a wonderful substance . . .

Stepping things up just a bit now!
The Estogen patch for me is on the one hand a great idea, on the other hand having to replace them more often than I should because they don't stick is a real pain. So much so that I've switched to sublingual's tables which also gave me a big boost in strength. The Climara patches were 50mcgs per day and eventually I'd have stepped it up and up to where I should be. The sublinguals cut down (I started with 2mg tablets) into four pieces give me 500mcgs per day, eventaully I'll step up further to something closer to "normal" mtf doses.
In the meantime between months on high doses of herbals, and low doses of Climara I'm a B cup which is cool, but amazing too since I'd not expected any growth this early. Now with the higher doses, I'm actually starting to feel growth going on, which is also very cool!
Everyone is different, so I don't want anyone reading this to think that you'll have the same results. I've always needed less of anything to get the same results as everyone else, so your mileage WILL vary! The most important thing to remember is that slow and steady wins the race!
