    Yep. You risk a higher chance of getting blood clots on premarin. There may have been some other risks as well, but I don’t remember those at the top of my head.

      Trans women thought it gave them cone boobs, that was the gossip back in the trans group back in the day.

      Lara Croft is a trans woman, cmv.

        Estradiol (bioidentical) does this as well, it’s not a limitation of just premarin. I have two cones so I would know! You need progesterone generally to get rounder boobs (it promotes the growth of the milk ducts, E just promotes growth of the breast tissue itself).

        Now also, as a disclaimer, what I just said about cones and prog is partially anecdotal; prog hasn’t been studied all that much yet, but quite a few transfems report cone boobs until they start prog (I will be starting it within a few months <3).
