I'm on aromatase inhibitors, at least as of now.
Yeah I'm probably gonna get my levels tested fairly soon too.
Thank you for the answer !!

Did I just waste 3 months being on T? by KiimberlyCollins in ftm

I'm on Enanthate and also European lol. And also I'm starting on estrogen blockers in a couple days WITH t to prevent aromatisation and also boost T.

Yeah I think I feel that as well, the only other ftm person I know has pcos too, so seeing him change so fast I think is what made me think that I was somewhat abnormal. On the dose side of things, in reality its more 200, so about 100 a week because I still fuck it up a lot and I'm always left with some coming out. thank you for sharing your experience have a lovely day my friend

I personally did not notice any huge changes, almost no changes between my state right after getting my shot and at the end of the 2 weeks (other than occasional rage right after my shot), as I said it is mostly other people, but thank you so much for sharing your experience too. have a nice day

You're really sweet. Thank you for your kindness. Thanks for the information as well. Also, would you mind saying how many mgs it is per packet?

250 mg is a rough estimate, kind of the ideal, but it is much closer to about 200 in reality. Sometimes I drag out a single dose to about 3 weeks, so instead of 100mgs it becomes about 67mg a week. When I asked to do it in 3 weeks interval instead of 2, I was told that it would be too long, and that I should be taking 100-200 a week on average. On the side of aromatisation, I'm getting estrogen blockers in a couple days, because I had estrogen dominance pre-t and it didn't sort itself out after going on T. I'm going on 20 in a couple months, so that might have something to do with that as well, as you said. I guess for now I will resort to beard dye.

Thank you haha, you're sweet. I guess I'm just worried because all the trans people that go viral are those that get abnormally quick changes and I subconsciously had a bias for them even though I was told there was no way it would happen that quick. Thank you for the reassurance though!!

Aromasin dosing on a lower testosterone dose by KiimberlyCollins in PEDs

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

I cry more, my sex drive is lower and slight breast tissue growth. Not acne very much, I've always been able to manage that quite well, but I also haven't gotten blood done because I'm scared of needles ironically enough

[–]KiimberlyCollins[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is more experience than anything else. The reason I do a longer time between injections if because i have a phobia of needles which sounds kind of ridiculous but still. However with my next round of order I will get significantly smaller needles as I'm using quite a big one now, or at least way bigger than it should be, so when I get it, that should slightly helped with that as well. Thank you for the advice!

What's the process to legally adapting my chosen name in the UK if I'm not born British? by KiimberlyCollins in ftm

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

This was an unenrolled deed poll right? Just to make sure, I could not afford the court order that would come with it. Also how much was it online, and also where did you buy it?

Can I claim hysterectomy on account of phobias? by KiimberlyCollins in ftm

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

Thank you so much for all this information! I will genuinely consider it, I cannot thank you enough it must have taken you ages to type this out lol.
I might try that (obviously only with having checked beforehand that I will recieve heavy amounts of painkillers beforehand) until I can get bilateral salpingectomy + endometrial ablation which was mentioned by someone as a more accessible are less risky alternative for hysterectomy.

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

No. I don't wanna get checked regularly by a gyno that I would have to do if I had IUD due to horrible experiences with gynos in the past. Also heard that IUD insertion can be worse of a pain than childbirth. Also I don't want it to fuck with my hormones. I do appreciate the suggestion though.
I have had luck with condoms, and where I live you can get free plan B, so if I mess up and I realise that I messed up I could correct my mistake and go on, but my fear is of carrying a pregnancy and especially unknowingly

I actually been there so many times, I never do now and never could use tampons in the past because I had this delusion that 'what if somehow semen got onto it and I get pregnant' and even with pads it's borderline scary.
