      Breasts atrophy without estradiol, that’s why a bunch of cis women get deflated breasts during menopause, if they don’t take HRT.

        So it’s not that testosterone shrinks them, is actually atrophy for the lack of estrogen. Is that right?

          Iirc, yes. It’s the same mechanism as penile atrophy without T.
