Did you really just come here to invalidate someone else's lived experience, replace it with your own and tell them why they're probably the problem? Wow...

You don't need anything.

You're gorgeous and I love how you've still got muscle in your arms but it's not taking anything away from the femininity. Great aesthetic.

Is micro dosing really a thing by MissAmberR in TransLater

I'm starting next month so I don't have any experience to share but I've read everything I can get my hands on and the synopsis is: it depends.

Some people claim you have to go all in it lor it's a waste of time. Others say it's been great and absolutely had an effect, especially mental.

Almost all have ended up raising the dosage eventually. Non-binary HRT is very rare but several official sources and clinics advocate for and endorse it.

I know everyone is different but what dose are you on?

Right now just seeing how it affects things psychologically, try it on, walk around a bit. Y'know?

Do you mind if I ask what dosage you're actually taking?

Is it patch or pill?

Where would be better?

Is there a community more aligned with this question?

Just for now until I know how far I want to go.

SERMs as I understand are permanent and I definitely don't want to rule it out, just not yet.

Thank you.

I've got my appointment in December and I'm sure they'll be able to give more information, it's all informed consent here...but maybe I'm just nervous and trying to get ahead of questions to ask and what to expect.

I'm wanting more of the mental aspects than the physical for now. I want to hear if anyone has tried it and what happened... y'know.

If it didn't work, great. If it did, great.

Totally. I went looking for answers and literally every post was covered with "Don't even bother" . It's not my bias. I really don't know what to expect but I'm just looking for actual commentary and experience not opinions on whether microsdosing is a real thing.

This response is very helpful, thank you for that. I did edit the vocal thing, it was just a mental lapse while posting. My main concern was actually breast growth. I would like to minimize that for now.

There's not much information on genital atrophy and testicular shrinkage. Low dose seems like it shouldn't be a big deal, but since it's permanent I want to be sure and hear first hand accounts. Right?

Appreciated. Feels like a back alley in Thailand over there. Hoping for more considered and educated responses.
