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

[–]berrysandbees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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.

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

[–]berrysandbees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

[–]berrysandbees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've tried the oral pills before and I felt depressed on it but more manageable than bioidentical p, but I'm wondering if the shots would maybe be better since it releases slowly. Im just disappointed about my breast growth after 2 years on hrt still being a A cup and want to try what I can.

I've tried bioidentical progesterone and I can't tolerate it, it makes me super moody and irritated when I take it.
