What will happen if a biological woman takes female hormones?

i'm a 24 yr old real woman. i'm 5'8 tall which is tall for a girl in my country. i have masculine features a big nose, wide jaw, etc. i also have a muscular build even if i do no exercise. i think i have too much testosterones in my body. so i'm taking 500 mg flutamide (eulexin capsule) and 50 mcg ethinyl estradiol (diane 35 pills). this was prescribed to me by a doctor. i researched it on the computer and this is the amount of hormones needed to turn a boy into a girl. so surely it will work for me to make me more feminine? what do you think? its not birth control !! flutamide = very strong anti androgen diane = birth control pills, take 2 each day

i'm 23 yrs old and i'm 5'8 tall..i have heavy build with broad shoulders and small breats..a wide jaw..a big nose..etc..and sometimes i look like a guy..especially if i wear wear makeup i look like a total drag queen..is it ok for me to take 100 mcg ethinyl estradiol (=5 birth control pills daily) + 500 mg flutamide (strongest antiandrogen available) + 50 mg spironolactone (milder antiandrogen)..what will happen to me? will i get more feminine? help pleasee

medication = flutamide 500 mg/daily and other chemotherapy drugs. the risk is supposed to be very small (0.03%), but i want to be doing all i can to make the chances favorable i've already: stopped drinking alcohol and im drinking 10 glasses of water a day 80% raw diet and exercising 50 mins/day monthly liver enzyme tests

Why did a DR. Prescribe, Did it work, Did it have bad side effects? Thanks so much.

i'm on flutamide twice a day. its an anticancer drug so its not optional. i have to take it but i havent been doing so for the past 2 months. the size of tablet is quite large and it has the most bitter and disgusting taste ive ever experienced in my life. after i swallow the tablet the taste lingers in my mouth for 30 mins no matter what i eat to mask it, its no use, its torture! ive actually been sick from vomitting twice trying to take it. i dread it. ive tried everything from mixing it with juice, putting it inside jello, breaking it up into smaller bits, with a tablespoon of honey, etc, nothing has worked. i havent told my doctor that ive been off it as i dont want her to think i'm a wimp but i know this cant be good. ive no idea why the pharmacy just doesnt film coat or encapsulate this stuff.
