Doctor wanted to start at a very low dosage of 50mg on Spironolactone, no estrogen yet, and I took my first dosage like a few hours before right...

I immediately want to grab anything and just end it all, what the fuck? I knew it can have severe mental effects but not to this point, I also noticed I already lost like most of my libido.

Am I just that sensitive to the medication?

youre being HONdosed

Retard.
First of all. These meds should be started at lower doses. Your endo is a retard for prescribing just spiro. That could stun your breast growth. Better ask them for both AAs and Estradiol. As for feeling effects. No. If you truly just started than you should feel no effects yet. You're upset. That is why your libido is screwed right now. take 50 mg for a week or two then up it to 100mg or 200mg. Honestly? I didn't trust my endo so I took around 400mg at some point. That is a bit of an overkill so just keep it at 300mg max.

you're not getting any effects from one dose of 50mg spiro
your doctor is heavily underdosing you, spironolactone does nothing for you at that dose without estrogen. Spironolactone alone is not a proper hrt regimen, if your doctor doesn't give you a normal dose of estrogen soon you need to either find a new doctor or diy.

>I'm letting a quack convince me to nuke my T without replacing it with E, why do I feel awful?
you have to be your own advocate and know your own shit, DIY or push back on this bullshit

This is literally how you know you aren’t trans.
Ignore it at your peril.

Entirely placebo. That being said, get on cypro or bicalutamide instead and they should be dosing you estrogen immediately. Also it's insane to say you have lost your libido in the span of a few hours. You sound dangerously out of touch with yourself and reality and should reconsider hrt.

buy e on the internet and do monotherapy

Yeah that's placebo, spiro does nothing except make you piss yourself

T impacts mood. I felt very different for the first few days. Your body will acclimate in a few days, but you should let your doctor know anyway.

You'll be fine. You'll need to give it a week or so like any medication before you'll know whether it is for you. Going with no sex hormones for a while will not feel nice.

I want to kill myself on estradiol and I want to kill myself off of it lol.

Spironolactone can artificially raise cortisol levels. when I was on it I was losing my mind, but I do have ADHD. You could be sensitive to it. talk to your endo ASAP.
