Whoever keeps tricking these femboys into exogenous 'e' (weak topicals are chill) are evil. E not through aromatization in a male's body is more likely to cause water retention, mood swings, and other mental effects. It also prevent fat migration through its fat storage changes
@Violet_Okami "Maintaining the feminine part of it" which is my mistake if assuming "it" in particular meant looks. Mentioning tret was mostly referring to maintaining, I didn't mean to make look more feminine. Although androgen tissue sensitivity increases with age androgen levels decrease.
@Violet_Okami Elastin is important absolutely but thats much harder increase after teen years. But retinoids like tretinoin helps with wrinkles through collegen synthesis meaning it plays a large role particularly in dermal volume
Its such a brutal genetic gamble that it shouldn't even be considered at all. Even if you feel like it's an all or nothing gamble that constitution can fall from the mood swings leaving you worse off. Such a huge risk for little reward.
Not to mention what it does to the 'boy' part of femboy. The pure genetic lottery with estrogen fat deposit shifting is also very brutal. Estrogen thins the outer layer of the skin prone to sag and wrinkles, could it lead to it being smoother? Maybe. But no better than a retinoid
@GracefulBanana2@GarryTale@phauxin It doesn't preserve youth, skin quality, or texture like that. You are better off using sunscreen, tretinoin or another retinoid to preserve or enhance collogen. The amount of Androgens produced by humans isn't harmful to your skin. Your body makes balanced estrogen amount.
