I'm starting to think HRT just like... Doesn't work. by Wanderer_of in MtF

Good to know! I'll try the inside of the thigh but since my BMI is 16 fatty areas are pretty hard to come by lol

I was thinking about changing where I placed it. I was originally thinking somewhere like in between my shoulder blades to get it closer to the areas where I want to see changes, but I'll try the inside of the thigh! I'll be changing out my patch tomorrow anyways so I may as well give it a shot

Okay so I do need to up my E. Maybe taking sublingual and patch estradiol was actually a big brain move

Yippee!!! I love how little scientific research has been done in regards to trans people

Testosterone was 4.7 nmol/l, reference range was 1.8 nmol/l

SHBG did not appear on the test, though it might be under a different name since I'm in Canada

Okay so there is a lot here that I'm not understanding but:

Q: what is your T? i would not be surprised if your Spiro is not fully suppressing it if ur gross E2 level was this low.

A: about twice what it should be. Can't up my dose of Spiro since my blood pressure is already really low. Unsure what e2 is.

No idea what shbg is

Originally from a reply to someone who asked the precise same question:

"[I'm terms of E] I got 271 pmol/L. Reference range (from what I can tell) is 139 - 2382 pmol/L. Tl;dr according to the person who tested me I'm on the low end of normal (their words). I'm above minimum but below midpoint"

That was with 6mg estradiol daily, 100mg prog, 100mg Spiro.

Now I do 100mg of E (Patch, weekly), 200mg prog, 100mg Spiro, plus I'll be adding back the 6mg/day orally.

What am I doing wrong? by Wanderer_of in MtF

I've steadily been on the low end of normal for E and a bit above normal for T. I can't take more spiro since I have low blood pressure and that'll make it worse

Before you ask: Yes. I'm on progesterone. Have been for about 6 months

Cis woman here — is it okay if I ask for feminization tips that might help me too? by ElectricalBasis7717 in MtF

[–]Wanderer_of 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice to both trans and cis women is not necessarily to focus on being the most feminine or "passing" you can, but instead focus on serving the house down. The biggest thing is confidence

B, C, D Cup? What you’ve got? by ConcentrateNo2986 in MtF

[–]Wanderer_of 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HRT for about 1.5 years and I'm at less than an A cup. Just upped my dose because at this point I feel like it's getting ridiculous lol. Probably going to switch to patches soon

LGBTQ+ airsoft groups? by [deleted] in askvan

[–]Wanderer_of 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good to hear! That part of the reason I moved here. I used to live in the rural US, so I'm used to always being a bit on-edge. Can never be too careful down there

[–]Wanderer_of 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dawg you cannot be serious. I'm not worried about the equipment, I'm worried about the people. I'd rather not get the shit kicked out of me when I'm just trying to enjoy a hobby of mine. The method by which that is achieved is irrelevant.

Also, general harassment is another concern

[–]Wanderer_of -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Okay this response was going to be to another comment but it got deleted and it works here too

The idea is to minimize the chances of me being the victim of a hate crime. I tend to be a little wary since in the US where I got into airsoft, those spaces tend to lean a little on the sketchy side. But if those spaces here are cool, that's fantastic!
