i'm just wondering if they would alter any of these and, if so, how:
mood
sex drive
weight/fat gain or muscle loss, etc
breast growth??
body hair/hair growth
abnormal hormonal levels of any sort
appetite
"monthly cycle"
these are mostly what i'm concerned about. i don't know many of the benefits to taking estrogen, but overall, are they a good idea or.. not so much?

Estrogen supplements will affect all of the things you listed, and possibly more. It's usually advised for someone with a hormonal imbalance to take them, and only your doctor can tell you if you are imbalanced. The range of benefits and changes caused by estrogen supplementation vary greatly from person to person, because everyone's hormone levels are different. If you don't need them, they probably won't have a very good effect on you, so it's best to go see a doctor before you start taking these.
