Do you have an electric blanket? Such joy!
(In no way discouraging your desire to stay in bed... sorry. But you could be SO cosy in there.
)
Is it unethical to re-start testosterone purely because I'm soooo fucking cold on Estrogen? 
I'm joking of course BUT I can't even handle mild coldness now. I want all the layers, I want to get into bed and stay there forever

Don't tempt me!
I'd cocoon myself in bed, it'll be far too lovely to ever leave.

2 things to check out... Iron levels (anaemia) and thyroid. I just couldn't get warm with anaemia despite dressing like a Michalin man.

Touchscreen gloves and slipper boots for when it's really cold. Plus a dressing gown in every room and copious amounts of blankets. Being cold is awful.

I actually used drugs and alcohol early in detransition in part to deal with feeling bitterly cold, which created it's own vicious cycle. At the time I interpreted it as a result of my chest having been almost entirely defleshed in my second botched surgery...

...but since it got better with time (and no, my chest did not regenerate) I now think it may have been largely hormonal.

I'm the same, cold = basically hibernating, no tasks allowed. I keep getting out the hot water bottle intent on using it, then putting it down somewhere and forgetting... I should try follow through on that one day - I think I need it!

this is obviously anecdotal, but as someone with high estrogen levels who was always cold, I just realized (when I read your tweet) that once I started progesterone a few years ago during perimenopause that I am not nearly as cold as I used to be! maybe it's an imbalance?

Could be an under-active thyroid. Leads to feeling cold all the time, is very VERY common in women, and massively under-diagnosed.

Alternatively, seeing as you are taking estrogen, it's possible that you are getting the symptoms of hypothyroidism, without actually HAVING an under-active thyroid, as estrogen can throw your endocrine system off, and give you those symptoms.
