Had a similar experience in Austria (even tho people say that it’s easier here). Pretty much took me a year too and I optimized the hell out if the waiting times with stuff like writing several doctors at once and seeing who would give me the fastest appointment.
I still have to go to Germany soon… The waiting time for bottom surgery in Austria is 5-6 years…
I hated my face too… Pre HRT some of my facial features where just so masc, quoting a friend of mine “you got a jawline more chiseled than roman statues”. HRT doesn’t change bone structure so I was devastated that I’d be stuck with that until I could get ffs. But what it does do however is round off facial features. My jawline didn’t go away, it got covered. I’m at a point where I am so happy with myself in general that I can’t even describe how it feels. I don’t think I could bare even a single day going back to how I used to look…
HRT does wonders. There is no other way for me to describe it. You just need to give it the time it needs
