im 19 and started my transformation

Going to echo everyone here - DIY hormones are tough to manage. Birth Control pills don't have the estrogen content to reshape the body, particularly while you are still making testosterone.

I'm not a huge fan of having to see doctors to transition, but they have their uses. One of them is getting you on the right amounts of estrogen and anti-androgens.

One word of advice from a gal who has been through it. Save your money for facial hair removal. I started both laser/electro and HRT around the same time and I found myself with noticeable breasts and STILL having to zap my beard - it's not a happy place to be. Part of this was due to not keeping up on my electro visits because they are damn expensive when you are working a retail job and waiting tables.
