    As someone with kleinfelters syndrome, don’t lower the T too much, it’s very important. I didn’t find out what I was until later in life and the addition of testosterone has made life better in every way. I got insulin resistance along the way and being fat was a good way to hide the breasts. Since starting estrogen blockers they’ve reduced in size a bit and that’s been nice.

      Did you develop breast buds? I like mine but if they grow just from lower T (or me low dosing E) I am considering getting them removed. I am kind of thin? Well healthy BMI. I need to find out how much fat/water will go into my chest and this is so hard to find.

        I don’t have buds, I have actual breast tissue. Like I said I’m a big guy so they blend in quite well. But I’ve seen some XXY guys who have very large breasts. My body doesn’t produce T at all. When I was tired all the time my doctor sent me in to get my T tested, it barely registered on the lab work. My body does however produce ample amounts of estrogen, which is why I have to take estrogen blockers so my body will not immediately convert the available T into estrogen.
