The biggest risks however. Are not being happy despite going through with it. And permanently disrupting your endocrine system.
There are a few mtf who actually did not have any of their psychological/body discomforts/dismorphias fixed by HRT. And there's actually a LOT of backlash and hate present for being a MTF who regrets transitioning. It's rare but if you're one of those people you will ironically find a huge lack of support and get hate for talking about it.
When you're on hormones long enough. Most people will never be able to return to normal on their own with their own hormone production.
I.e. you take esteogen and androgen blockers, you 100% regret it after a year for whatever reason. You now have to take testosterone to have normal testosterone levels again.
You will become permanently dependant on hormones to have youthful levels, until you decide to "age" and stop taking them as you yet much older.
Some things like your hips have been shown to continue to grow throughout your life but this is a painfully slow process. HrT won't change your frame significantly. It won't remove your Adam's apple. It won't remove your wide shoulders. It won't fix any structural issues relating to growth during puberty. It'll change where you deposit fat. But Ultimately you're still going to look more masculine than if you were born a female.
Breast growth is permanent and after many monthes requires surgery to reverse.
These are all serious things. If you're just sexually turned on by the idea. How are you going to feel after you get off? Alienated by your own body, disgusted? Are you going to feel comfortable, normal, happy?
Alot if people want to do it because the idea is hot. But the reality is miserable and the changes some of them permanent.
Also if you're seeing like dream girls on instagram with your "ideal" breasts and butts. Keep in mind that there's a huge variety in female shapes that come down genetics. There are women with high estrogen who have masculine shapes, small butts, small breast growth. Just because your HRT doesn't mean you'll look how you want or will ever have your ideal shape.
Women fly to Brazil for cheap risky surgery just because they aren't happy with their shapes just as men take alot of steroids because they aren't happy with theirs.
The only point I'm trying to make is, you need to think about this alot. And you need to fully realize and accept that you might be 100% unhappy with how you physically look despite doing HRT. And there's the strong possibility you will not get what you want.
Your biggest indicator of how your feminized body will look, is to look at the women of your family. And also their breast size. As MTF your growth will most likely be a size or two smaller than theirs at best.
