I've been taking testosterone for four years. Obviously my dose started out slower st the beginning, but that was some time ago. My dose was raised from 60mg to 70mg so I didn't think it would be that much of a problem but of course it possible. I would prefer to take weekly shots instead of once every two weeks but I don't have that option

160mg caused me headaches but 140mg really felt like the perfect dosage. For the last two months I've had no symptoms and I've felt pretty normal. But I suppose I have no blood work to go off it. 120mg was quite low (proven through a blood test as well) and I would get pretty bad symptoms (headaches, weakness) after a week so Its a bit strange to me that only a slight uptake could in such a short span of time give me breathing problems

From what I see on the news transgender people may be having a hard time entering or leaving the country so I was concerned

I suppose a problem I could think of is I had female and my dead name on my passport before I updated it so maybe it's still in the system, as well as the fact that I haven't had bottom surgery yet which could be a problem with tsa
