So I started HRT 6 weeks and it seems like, that the amount I have to sleephas skyrocketed since then. Before it was impossible for me to sleep more than 9-10h, now if nothing wakes me up I easily sleep 11-12h. If I wake up after 9h of sleep I feel like I barely slept at all and I get quite tired over the day. I know that this is an expected side effect of HRT (or puberty in general) but I did not expect for this to happen this fast. When did you started to get so tired?

During the first 2-3 years I'd get really tired, then really hungry, then my tits would get really sore after a few days of it.

After one and a half years of HRT I had all of that so far except the sore tits. A mild discomfort like a pulling or stabbing feeling or some itching but nothing else and the past year basically nothing. How long can growth breaks be for breasts?
