When you mention in chat that you started T in your 30s and a youngun says "I thought HRT didn't work after a certain age???"

Folks. Please. Stop listening to terfs. They're LYING to you.

HRT will work regardless of age.

There are trans folks taking HRT and seeing results as old as SEVENTY and even EIGHTY.

If it's taking a while to see effects, that's not because of the HRT, that's just how your body works with the hormones.

I've been on T for ten years, and I'm only now seeing decent facial hair, and I'm still working on a happy trail. But that's just how it works for me.

Everyone is different, and genetics play a factor. It also won't have results if you can't be consistent or if you give up early.

What isn't a factor is age.

It's never too late to start HRT, stop letting bigots tell you otherwise.
