Could this be HRT making a difference so soon?

Started HRT Wednesday.
Yesterday the DC were behaving horribly - deliberately winding each other up in a noisy and disruptive way. I am tired and normally I'd find this very annoying and quickly get cross with them. Yesterday, I just thought "They're just being kids", in a very calm way and then calmly got them to behave better.
Is it possible that the HRT is already kicking in and making me less irritable? So soon?

It could be. I found that some of my worst symptoms like sleeplessness and anxiety stopped almost overnight. But it could also be the fact that you know that you have started treatment and that in itself is making you feel better. Or a bit of both.

I have had days when I've noticed I've been feeling unusually anxious and on edge but, when I've checked, discovered I forgot to take my HRT that morning. So it can be quite fast acting on some symptoms!

Thank you! If this carries on, it will be pretty amazing. I am used to being quite grumpy a lot of the time!

my MH symptoms improved very fast too. It might be some placebo effect too who knows. Either way I felt better!
