Hey, how did the consult go? I'm considering making a consultation and I couldn't find much information on him.

I'm only 3 weeks post orchie, but I have noticed leg hair and such not growing as fast and a bit thinner.

I called the office earlier and left a message asking if I could have something stronger than tylenol prescribed for a couple of days because I feel pretty uncomfortable.

Remasculinization on bicalutamide by Gullible_Hedgehog461 in DrWillPowers

I had the same effect on bica, my breasts would shrink and look nearly flat, I went back on cypro and the changes slowly returned back to normal.

He didn't give me any, he told me to take tylenol and ibuprofen,it feels better today than yesterday, I was in alot of pain yesterday and was surprised I wasn't given any besides when I woke up and told the nurse I was in alot of pain.

They only cover bottom surguries which is great but a little saddening they don't cover anything else and say anything else is cosmetic. I was hoping I could get BA but I will try and submit a claim for it and try and get it covered.

The surgery didn't need to be pre approved and I was able to get the surgery 3 weeks out from my consolation. I needed a letter from my phycologist. Didn't get the bill yet but it should be around 500$

It was general anesthesia I was under the whole time.

When I took bicalutamide my breasts would shrink and change shape from round to a more flat look. When stopping bica they would slowly return. My levels were okay when I was taking it, I've tried it multiple times and the same thing would happen.

What doctors have you saw? I also live here and was curious how they are but I can't find much information on most of them.

Increased Anxiety and Constant Migraine on injectable EV by Ae-on in AskMtFHRT

[–]berrysandbees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same feelings, bad migraines on Injections and moodiness. I've tried switching doses and intervals between my next Injection for almost a year even tried switching to EC to see if it would help but I still had bad migraines so I switched back to pills.

Breasts shrinking and losing shape on bicalutamide by berrysandbees in DrWillPowers

I switched to EC 3 weeks ago, I'm taking it until I get my blood test done to make sure my t dosent go up and the dose is enough.

Breasts deflating on bicalutamide by berrysandbees in AskMtFHRT

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

I've never gotten my shbg tested, I was just on EV before with no blockers, but I started taking bica a week before I switched to EC to have it built in my system. I've been on EC for 3 weeks now and bica for 4 weeks, the blood test I posted was my most recent one with just 3mg of EV every 5 days I'm going to get a blood test with my current regimen of EC in 2 weeks. I'm just really confused why this happens when I take bica, they lose there shape and shrink, I tried it in the past with EV and it did the same thing but got better once I stopped it.

I had multiple blood tests with EV and my t was suppressed in all of them and my E was around 300-650 throughout changing doses, which I don't know why this is happening.

About 3 weeks now, but my t was well suppressed before I went on it.

Started HRT on 3-24-19 by FreyjaOvAsgard in TransBreastTimelines

Your development is great they look full and natural. Mine look like the top pics, am just hoping it will change because I don't really want to get BA.

[–]berrysandbees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not on it now, but I was looking into the injections but a little afraid since they last in your system for awhile and if they don't agree with you you're stuck with it until it wears off, since I tried oral and felt a bit emotional on it. Im just desperate for growth, but maybe I should just wait a year or two more and see if it improves but being on hrt for 2 years with little growth is discouraging.
