So I kinda wanna do some basic research before taking a deep dive. Until now I have just been doing mono therapy, but some of the results have been … kinda underwhelming?
Facial hair growth has barely slower down despite me using nair.
Functionality down under is still there (except sperm production is gone). My libido is gone. But when I do go for a session I feel like garbage afterwards.
Breast growth has slowed significantly. This is useful for boy modding, but I am not planning on staying the closet forever. Ok, tbh, I can see myself staying there for a depressingly long time. But that’s besides the point.
What I am asking about basically is if taking t-blockers will fix these problems, at least to an extent.
need to get blood testing and get your levels checked, only surefire way to know what to change
also ur post title and post body asking 2 different questions is very confusing x3
theres no reason not to start prog, go for it
as for t blockers, get your levels checked
also how long have you been on E?
Wait, isn’t prog a t-blocker?
I’ve been on E for about 6 months, but this last month or so I have been taking them irregularly due to personal circumstances.
at only 6 months everything ur experiencing is to be expected, thats not very long
boobs take years, things slowing down and speeding up is normal
also you should still get your levels checked :p
I’m kinda scared about the legal consequences of getting my levels checked and it being found that i am doing diy. Plus I need a prescription from the GP to get a check to begin with, and would probably need to tell him about me doing DIY.
I’m not sure how much I can maintain my privacy and still get checked. Like, I guess the government knows I am trans cause I did get a referral to a gender clinic (my waitlist number has been going up instead of down somehow. God bless europe and God bless austerity). However, they don’t know about me doing DIY.
in most places you can just pay for private blood testing
Prog doesn’t block or suppress T, research is spotty so it’s not 100% clear what all it does but it appears to affect mood and breast growth at the very least
It takes a long time for hrt to work. I still get random boob spurts after 10+ years hrt. I generally consider at least 2 years of fully effective hrt to be the baseline for most changes.
