Concerns about arm hair growth

See title. I’m on HRT for over 11 months now, thoroughly enjoying it. I’ve a hunch the dose is a bit low, though. I get androgen blockers every 2-3 months, my last one was one month ago.

Normally my arm hairs aren’t very visible, so I didn’t have much dysphoria from that. However, recently my arm hair seems to be growing a lot and thicker, and I’m concerned. Is this normal?

My mum doesn’t really have a lot of arm hair, nor do other gals in my family.

    I updated my post to clarify I wasn’t advising them to follow my endo’s instructions

    However you do have me curious.

    I’m on blockers so my T is below what the test will measure, sufficiently nuked.

    My E most recently was at 484 pmol/L, and not at trough as you mention. What are ladies usually aiming for at trough?
