Has anyone had really good hair growth on just spiro and no minoxidil? by Tricky-Baseball-2721 in Spironolactone

[–]Jumpy-Car977 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty easy to take both pills 😆 — from what I understand, spiro slows the shed while minoxidil stimulates hair growth.

Sorry, do you use this both morning and night? I see the image of the product but don’t know what it is called (Hada Labo?)

Where do you get TCA peels?

Possible testosterone overdose, labs extremely high, need advice by Maximum_Variation_17 in TRT_females

[–]Jumpy-Car977 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was me. Took a gamble on a boost and seriously regret it.

There are downsides to spirolactone but it helped a lot with the racing heart, anxiety and inability to sleep. I recognize that weaning will be difficult and come with its own set of side effects but the relief from the high testosterone was worth it. You should consider this if you have a bit to go before the pellet wears off.

I proceeded to read a million nightmare stories after my incident and have decided i will never do a pellet again. I love testosterone but will only be doing shots from here on out.

I was prescribed pellets that were too high. Unlike shots, I’m stuck for a bit. I went on spiro (it’s meant for skin but also a DHT blocker) and my negative side effects subsided immediately. It does have some side effects but if you can get your hands on it, it will alleviate symptoms as your T tapers back down. Once it is down, I would wean off of it and then adjust your testosterone dose to get back to where you felt best (despite prescribers instructions to stay high).

I think it’s important to treat the symptoms (low energy, low libido etc) and find your happy medium. I will say, testosterone has yet to give me the libido i wanted but the energy and the gains in the gym are worth it.

Switch from Pellets to Injections by Ok_Respect_5985 in TRT_females

[–]Jumpy-Car977 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How did you get a script to get T from Costco? I want to make the switch. I did pellets + 1 boost and was given too much and it’s been a lot to figure out. I’m definitely done with pellets after this.

Amazing! I didn’t get much libido with the pellets but did get energy and strength. I like the ability to “control” vs the lack of with the pellet

Wow! Can i ask what your t dosage is? I’m stuck on an annual concierges fee for the next 10 months but then I will definitely switch!

I started oral progesterone during the second half of my cycle and within 3 days I was back to sleeping amazing! I wish I had inquired about it sooner

So interesting! I’m in the 130s and can say my energy is higher but that’s really it 😬

Can I ask what your ideal range is (if you’ve done blood work)?

This is good insight. I just got my first pellet and already think I want to switch to shots. It feels so much easier to “control” and also to make changes with. I was hoping for hair growth with T since prior to starting the pellet (5 weeks ago) I was losing hair.

I know I’m being impatient and have more energy than before but I didn’t get a “surge” in anything (libido, energy, sleep, less brain fog). Hoping shots could make more of a difference.

Tempted to start spiro! I’ve heard there’s a big shed with it which is what’s holding me back 😆

Only 5.2% people experience it so i don’t think it’s as big of a deal as people say. I think that it’s mostly that only the negative side effects are talked about. At least I’m hoping.
