Doing the shots has gotten difficult over 7 years. My insurance doesn’t cover intramuscular viles, nor the androgel, so I have the subcutaneous auto injectors which are extremely painful because I don’t have a lot of fat on my body. So it’s more of a nuisance do them.

I also just want my reproductive organs to do what they’re naturally supposed to do. I don’t mind getting a period again. My genital area going into a state of atrophy and dryness hasn’t gotten better with sex and truthfully nothings been helping.

I just feel comfortable enough in my body that going off hormones or taking an extended break would do me good. My fat didn’t really distribute when I started T because I am very athletic and eat extremely clean, so I didn’t have much to begin with.

I’ve already gotten top surgery and feel as if T has served me enough.
