      It does! But I should mention that this experience isn’t universal.

      Some trans folks don’t get the day-1 giddiness at all, instead finding that their baseline mood improves steadilly over the first few days or weeks of treatment without a period of euphoria.

      Another common experience is a period of mild depression around 6-8 months in. For me, this was similar to the teenage moodiness of my first puberty, though much milder and less “wrong”-feeling.

        Fascinating! I can’t wait to see what it’ll be for me…

        Congrats with your HRT and may it serve you well!
