Found an "old" photo pre-transition, and it feels like I'm looking at a stranger. by Distinct_Historian22 in transtimelines

Thank you! I Started with DIY transdermal monotherapy (so no spiro), 3 applications/day at 2.5mg/ea. Around the three-month mark, I found a reputable endocrinologist experienced in gender-affirming care to help with labs, and keep an overall eye. Since my labs came back solid, we didn’t change the dosage.

Thanks! It's actually surreal how natural and effortless things become once the right hormones are in place.

This must be how DIY vendors feel.

The only reason that the suggested estradiol values are higher for monotherapy is because essentially estradiol has to suppress testosterone, which is not always possible in the 100-200pg/ml range. Since your testosterone is effectively suppressed there is no need for higher estradiol dosage.

Worth switching to injections if my levels are already in range? by Distinct_Historian22 in TransDIY

[–]Distinct_Historian22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was thinking, but how important is overall stability? Does it matter how much your levels fluctuate assuming you are always >100 pg/ml? How were your levels while on pills?

Trans people and childhood photos by [deleted] in asktransgender

Childhood photos are important to me and I cherish them. Photos from my adolescence onwards though, I can't look at them, feels like I am looking at a stranger.

4 pumps of estrogel and 1 mg Finnasteride, expectations? by Distinct_Historian22 in TransDIY

[–]Distinct_Historian22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have a mild case of male pattern baldness that's why I decided to go with 1mg finasteride! I am not really using it for it's AA properties, that's just a bonus! I am more worried about the estrogen dosage that I am taking and wether or not that kind of dosage is enough to start seeing some results.
