hi is 4mg sub a day (as 4×1mg) okay as a starting dose or too high? i'm worried that i might risk slowing breast growth in the future? it's valorate instead of hemihydrate if that matters too.
>>36681363no but you'll need an AA
I upped Bica from 37.5mg to 50mg three months ago, and the past month, my hair has been shedding a lot. I have even been on 1.25mg Fin for a year. Is this a normal response?
>>36681236Which website has the cheapest Bica?
>>36681363i'd suggest 6mg4mg is borderline hondose unless ur body takes e rly well
>>36681363it's ok and you might not need an AA if it works properly - do a bloodtest a month in and if your T is too high either take an AA or (my suggestion) up the dosage, blockers are bad for breast growth
>>36681635>>36681486>>36681380oh yeah sorry and i should have mentioned i'm also taking 12.5mg cypro with it. and umm i've actually been on it for close to a month now and i'm really really worried i am actually hondosing myself because i have seen literally no changes and nothing that would even suggest i was on hrt except no libido and slight sensation in my chest. if someone told me i was taking a placebo i would believe them honestly. i'm also diy so i can't really easily test bloods like that on a monthly basis. i'm starting to feel like i'm not meant to be on hrt tbdesu.
>>36681808one month u should probably only feel mental effects and maybe some breast bud soreness. did u get a baseline levels check before u started? it can inform for how much androgen blocker u rly need. rly tho, a month is not enough time time to really tell. when u hits ur 90 days go get ur bloodwork done at trough and post ur levels. *then* we can rly help inform ur dosage.
Hii! Day 10 of 4mg oral estradiol (2x 2mg daily, no AA) and my ejaculate has already greatly reduced in volume! I got say maybe a mL out AT MOST compared to my pre-hrt ~5mLHowever I’m still getting morning wood and all that stupid stuff :(Now I know lab work is king and all that but just anecdotally, about how much would my T be suppressed at this dose? (My endo is having me hold off on any AA for, like, the first two months to prevent “breast fusion” or whatever, ughh)
i am fucking miserable and i want to diemy LED hair removal sessions are barely workingi feel like my moustache is fucking increasing and i dont now what the fuck to doelectrolysis doesnt exist in my countryim on my 7th session and its the same thing every time: do sessions, 2 weeks later moustache mostly disappears then reappears slowlyIT NEVER FUCKING DISAPPEARS FOREVERi am at a complete fucking losssome beard also reappered out of nowheremy DHT is at 20ng/dl (calm down, im getting my hairline back)do you guys think its DHT causing this? i know DHT affects facial hairif i take duta, is it possible its going to fix my shit?i feel so powerlesshow come we can transplant a fucking heart and cant get rid of facial hair in a more surefire wayi want to fucking diesomeone tell me somethiing please that isnt "do electrolysis bro"
>>36681391hair shedding cam be caused by like a billion things but in your case its def not due to androgens>>36681398https://hrtcafe.net/bicalutamide.htmlsort by price>>36681808thats normal for one month, there's essentially no chance ur T isnt suppressed on that dose>>36681870your endo is retarded and you should kill them, "breast bud fusion" is literally a meme and even if it weren't you'd want high dose AA with low dose E instead of the opposite. there's a decent chance your T is unsuppressed but its impossible to say without blood tests >>36682082 >LED hair removal...what
>>36682166>its def not due to androgenscan you elaborate?
>>36682166>...whatvery useful advice, thank you
Upped my dose, is 1000 pmol/L at trough high enough to be concerning?
>>36682498No
>>36682277to be able to overcome bicalutamide, you would have to already have a hopeless suifuel hairline from all that androgen exposure
>>36682166High dose AA / low dose E? Ok so, I don’t doubt you but like, what are the mechanics that make that better?
>>36682584I've been on Bica for 14 months, and the hair shedding only became a concern after I raised my dosage. It seems like the timing of the shedding coincides with the dosage change rather than being a pre-existing issue related to androgen exposure...
>>36682082Get a laser machine off aliexpress or diy electrolysis. You can try that one ipl machine but i highly doubt it would work on facial hair. You can always travel somewhere for laser, maybe by train?
>>36683014i have access to laser, i said i dont have access to electrolysisdo you know whether high DHT can impact the efficacy of lasering or not?
what’s the easiest and cheapest way to buy crypto for hrt? It’s my first time buying and I don’t understand anything :(
>>36683194Shouldnt, youre basically just cauterizing the follicle with heat.And thats why i said diy electrolysis, some anon here posted schematics for a 9v battery setup not too long ago. Im not an expert but im sure its not that difficult, just make sure you know what youre doing. Might also be worth looking into the local scene there may be someone who owns a laser machine or knows someone who does under the table type stuff. If not you can become that person and make some nice money off it.
>>36681236should i have started with pills? got injections but have just heard you should start with pills initially. am i going to fuck things up?
>>36683417dude i live in brazil and i cant even change the shower heaterelectrolysis here unheard of
>>36683435the only thing that matters are blood levelsthat's itE above 100pg/mlT below 50ng/mlthats it
>>36683510>50ng/mli meant 50ng/dl
>>36683417>youre basically just cauterizing the follicle with heat.yes but DHT could be restoring it back into its full suicide-inducing gloryis 200pg/ml even high
>>36681236is anamoding really so bad while on hrt? im getting rid of all the male fat anyway>anorexia is bad no matter whati mean as long as i dont literally end up dying from it isnt it a good way to get rid of male fat
>>36683510up the e to 200 and ur righttranners arent cis women and we have to go thru second puberty so our levels needs to be higher than cis women for ~5-8 years. >>36683607see above. 200pg/mL is baseline for not getting hondosed. >>36683833anamoding is only bad bc it doesnt redistribute body fat. weigbt cycling is the best prove. method to attain a feminine silhouette (or masculine for pooners)
upped my duta dosage and I can feel my T has gone up it's so over and it literally has happened before when I upped my duta dosage before and my T responded by literally doubling itself to 50 ng/dl that must have happened again I wonder if it's not like 100 ng/dl this time it's literally so over
>>36683501How can flip flop motorcycle man get a gun to rob you with and you cant even get a battery and some wires?
>>36684097>upped my duta dosageto what? just take 0.5 mg daily!>>36684097>I can feel my T has gone upyou're schizophrenic. stop astral projecting, close your third eye, and check your levels. facts don't care about your feelings.>when I upped my duta dosage before and my T responded by literally doubling itself to 50 ng/dl that must have happened again I wonder if it's not like 100 ng/dl this time it's literally so overeven if that were the case, couldn't it be easily solved by just taking more estrogen to suppress your testosterone? that's how monotherapy works!
how can i avoid dick shrinkage and ball shrinkage and keep it’s function? I wanna start E but this is my main fear
>>36683833post BMI. losing weight isn't necessarily bad but it's the opposite of what you should be doing if breast growth is a goal. and healthy weight loss and anorexia are not the same. if you're legitimately underweight you should eat more and gain a fat ass, thicc thighs, and full breasts
>>36685660testosterone gel/cream on genitals, but why are you taking estrogen?
How do I futamaxx if I've lost some girth and length already?
>>36685645>to whatfrom 1mg to 1.5 mg>just take 0.5 mg dailywell I did try thatmy dht went from 27 ng/dl to 14 ng/dl, which was somewhat good even though it was still high...until my dht went up to 18ng/dl for some reasonthen I tried 1 mg of dutamy dht went from 18ng/dl to 11 ng/dl...but my T went from 20 ng/dl to 50 ng/dl at the same timeI just switched to injections at that point while still taking dutamy first blood test on injections was very high E(700pg/ml) and T 28 ng/dl, DHT 11 ng/dl...but 2 months later at the same high E because I haven't decreased my E dosage yet my new blood test wasT 21 ng/dl, DHT 20 ng/dl so my dht went up again..........and now i'm trying 1.5 mg of duta because idk what to do at this point but certainly decreasing my duta to 0.5mg wouldn't help also I am decreasing my E dosage at the same time so that certainly won't help lower my dht but 700 pg/ml of E is not really good so that's why I'm doing that and like my dht was that high at that e level so yeah it's over basically I really don't think 1.5 mg of duta will even help but I don't think I'm going to increase it again when I see it didn't help much so idk
>>36685645>you're schizophrenicit has happened before (T went up as a result of increasing duta dosage)>couldn't it be easily solved by just taking more estrogen to suppress your testosteroneif 700 pg/ml of E can't suppress my dht I don't believe any level of E can
>>36685813>14 ng/dl, which was somewhat good even though it was still highno. it's smack in the middle of the DHT range for cis women (around 4–22 ng/dL, making 13ng/dL the middle value)
>>36685833get your balls removed. orchiectomy would fix you >T 28 ng/dl, DHT 11 ng/dlliterally the perfect "middle" testosterone level for females. and a slightly below middle DHT level. perfect.>T 21 ng/dl, DHT 20 ng/dleven lower than middle testosterone. higher DHT but still within a female range. remember: variation in hormones levels is normal. cis women have the most variation in hormone levels due to their menstrual cycle. just stick to whatever regimen got you these numbers because they look almost ideal. slightly high DHT at that last reading there but not enough I'd be concerned, especially given that at a high dose of dutasteride (0.5mg is normal, 1mg is probably more than you need) and a high level of estrogen, i doubt slightly high DHT is doing real damage. you're just paranoid due to dysphoria >>36685690
>>36685690fuck i didn't mean to reply to you then. whatever, i will now. you can try applying testosterone gel, mastubating more frequently, and usually Cialis/Viagara to get hard if you're having trouble. why do you want a big dick though? just let the estrogen feminize your entire body. don't fight the natural consequences of your choices
>>36685918>get your balls removedI want to but I can't currently>higher DHT but still within a female rangeas far as I know it's literally like at least 10 ng/dl more than would be the minimum maximum amount of dht at which it would make sense to not worry about it (like 10ng/dl) and like yeah it's in the female range but I don't think I should want to not mind being at the high end of italso I realized that >>36685894 here I understood the post I was replying to wrong so I'm going to delete that post but basically as far as like I understand 10 ng/dl is like the most amount of dht I should be ok with and ideally it should be even lower because like... if 20 ng/dl is still in "healthy" range for cis women but obviously it does make a difference for cis women if they're at the higher end of that range or lower than that and like what for them can be not that bad in terms of the effect of "high" dht on them for me like it would be even worse I guess to have that? if that makes sense?>T 21 ng/dl, DHT 20 ng/dlso I don't think I really want to stay at this level and that was my level before I upped my dosage to 1.5 mg of duta and I guess I'm already doing that and I don't think it's really a good idea to not do that so yeah...though now if my T has gone up again idk what I'll even do when I see it on a blood test
>>36685933I'm a nonop top and my lost size is distressing me nowI'm also struggling with low libido so regular masturbation is kind of hard to keep up with even with cialis... Is more exercise good for that?
hey anons. last thread i posted about being paranoid about my package from otokonoko getting seized. shortly after posting that i got an email saying my order was cancelled due to not paying... even though i did. the contact page didn't work so i just shot a message to the same address that sent me the cancellation notice and included my transaction id.how fucked am i? will i get my meds or did i just waste my money lmao
>>36686253Nah this happened to me and it was just a automated mistake. Resent the TX ID in your followup and she'll get back to you
>>36682759probably low shbg idk nta
>>36685918my T is 25 ng/dl and DHT 48 pg/ml
>>36685661im not underweight yet, i dont really want breasts tbdesu
