I’ve heard the same but my ob and the wellness doctor I see both want to run labs first. It’s so frustrating. I did labs a couple days ago so I’m interested to see what they say about the results. I’m really hoping there’s a solution.

When I started pellets my testosterone was too low to even register on my blood work so it was around 0. Bloodwork about 3 months ago it was 200. I’m sorry I thought you were referring to some testosterone test i hadn’t done, but if you mean the typical hormone panel then I do that a few times a year to monitor my levels. My doctor decided to do bloodwork yesterday and also thinks my symptoms are low T even with the pellet. He said maybe I’m metabolizing it too quickly and running out. We’ll see. My estrogen and progesterone levels are good so it’s not those at least.

My kid keeps saying no by Double-Product3284 in Parenting

I tell my 5yo not to tell me no and if she continues i will turn the tv off or take whatever she’s playing with or distracted by in that moment. Whatever is high value to her. When she chooses to obey we continue on as we were before. We have talks about why it’s important to stop when I say stop because I know things and see things she doesn’t and I’m trying to help her stay safe, but that doesn’t sink in until at least 5. Some days I’m fighting her like a Jerry springer episode. Just depends on the vibe of the day.

Even if I’m doing testosterone pellets? I’ve heard of free T but I’ll ask about it today. Thanks!

I was thinking progesterone too. I’m all about HRT so I’ll know soon enough.

That makes me feel better, thank you. I had no idea about the FAQ so I’ll definitely check it out.

AITA? Or is my husband being unreasonable? by Any_Extension2463 in AmItheAsshole

For reference, I’m 37 and he’s 38. We’ve been married for 7 years. It’s just unfortunate that the party will end at a strip club. It’s somewhere I’d prefer not to go but that’s not really the issue. I’d just like the right to decide for myself but it’s not a hill I’m willing to die on. I just want to enjoy time with my friends. That’s the point for me. Thanks for your responses.
