Hello Katrina.
Glad you could join the board!
I think there is one of two standards that is commonly used to determine what is one's ideal dose. The first is obtaining breast growth. The second is having significant relief from gender dysphoria. Some members are pursuing only one of these goals, while others strive for both.
I suspect there is seldom a "eureka" moment when trying to find the right dose. Even if you have found the right dose, I think more often than not, it'll take time for you to recognize this. This is a major reason why I recommend posting progress pics of your development on a regular basis. Other members might see changes or development that you might have overlooked, as you have the disadvantage of seeing your chest everyday. In regards to the second goal, the people closest to you (if you're taking pm for gender dysphoria) might be the first ones to notice a significant improvement in your liveness and overall mood.
I think we tend to have a bit of flexibility usually with finding the right dosage. The good thing is you may not need to hit a precise dosage to get the results you want, the problematic issue though is your ideal dosage may change over time. If you look at my regime, I have changed my pm dosage a bit from a moderate amount to a high amount, and then back again.
I seem to have some flexibility with my ideal dosage. So long as I'm feeling good, my trivial male pastimes are kept under wraps, and my breast development seems to be progressing, I'm happy with my dosage.
Glad you could join the board!

Maybe I'll be able to answer this question myself in a month or two. Just curious how you all felt during the first couple weeks and how you found your correct dose.
