The only thing I really noticed in my brain is being more sleepy all the time. For me, heightened emotions already happened before HRT, after coming out of repression. Maybe the hormones have amplified it even more, but if so it’s not dramatic enough to be easy to tell. If nothing else, though, experiencing the physical changes has had a marked positive effect on my mood through euphoria, relief from dysphoria, etc. Can’t say for sure if some of that might be from the hormones alone. It can be difficult to separate the confounding variables.
