Last week was my 2 year HRT anniversary so I wanted to share my progression

This is my 2 year HRT progression and I wanted to share it because my anniversary was on April 10th 2026 which was just last week on Friday. It's incredible, I noticed how much happier I look while putting this together.

I'm 33 years old now, started HRT when I was 31 years old and I came out 6 months before starting HRT. I'm on the waitlist for my SRS which will probably due next year in August going by the current wait time.

I can't recommend enough to take pictures regularly to see your own progress because it's very difficult to see the changes in the mirror when you see yourself in there every day.

The dress in the second to last picture is my first dress and I'm so excited to wear it to the first wedding I've been invited to since coming out.

Also could be "timeline of a person finding themselves and in the process finding the joy and happiness needed to live their life"

Beautiful, i could see this being in a story about trans success stories. I love this collage soooo much. Being yourself and joyful looks absolutely stunning on you ❤️

That's a lovely dress and you look fantastic in it! Thank you for sharing -- I think it's so important for people to see just how much joy transitioning brings.

I think it's also important to encourage other trans people and show them what's possible to achieve. Although as always: your mileage may vary.

It's one of the things I was always jealous of so I practised immediately!
