Why is it that I’m on estrogen but whenever I lose weight the fat from the feminine areas of my body is still what goes first? I’m at the lowest weight that I’ve been in months and paradoxically I feel like my body is fat in a masculine way.

I FEEL THE SAME WAY IRS SO DUMB. Like I’ve lost weight but it’s all been from my fuckin thighs and not nearly as much from my stomach😔 Maybe my E levels just aren’t high enough yet

it's maybe that that's just the areas where you've accumulated more visible fat? you can target specific areas to grow your muscles and "round out" those areas, but fat loss is much more of a "whole body" thing

My dosage actually changed recently I forgot, but it took me until a couple of months before a year to be increased to 2mg

Oh yea that’s dumb that’s the dose they put me on to start. I dunno why they would start you so low that’s dumb asf I’m sorry😔 I’m still having the same issue as you with fat redistribution tho🫠
