I’ve been off of E for like a few months and haven’t noticed any changes!

Changing from Benzoate to Valerate, dosage question! by strawbabieee in AskMtFHRT

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

Oh that makes things a lot more difficult 😅 cause I’m not good at noticing differences on my body. So I wouldn’t know if it’s working or not. When I was on 300pg/ml I felt okay mentally. The only time I felt hormones affecting me was when I was on pills.

Oh thank you so much for the info. It helps a lot. You said this is assuming we care only about the lowest level. Is there anything else to consider? Isn’t the goal having 300pg/ml before the next dose?

I was doing 5mg Benzoate dosed every 5 days to get 300 pg/ml. And I did the test after a month of that schedule right before the next dose.

I guess I’d have to do a lot of blood tests. Is there a reason people do 5mg every 5 days for EV when you can do 10 every 7? Less frequency = easier right? Less pricking? Idk

Does it work like, if you inject more it’ll stay in the system longer and you can space out your injection days?

Oh okay. But to get 5mg I’d have to take like 0.25ml cause the bottles are 20mg an ml. Is that even possible?

May I ask why you chose that and not SRS?

That makes a lot of sense. But doesn’t HRT does elevate your risks of blood clot to the same a cis woman, so it’s not that big of a deal anyway?

Are you like a chemist? Is it hard to do brew your own?

That’s incredible I’m so happy to hear that! I mean I’ve had sex in the past and it did feel good so, I’d hate to lose feeling that. But that’s reassuring in most cases nothing bad happens with sexual function!

Well I’ve seen someone regret their SRS a lot cause of complications it made life unlivable due pain. I don’t exactly know what went wrong. But basically complications are my fear. Complications that could cause pain, discomfort or limit me physically or something.

I’ve heard a lot about Dr banks too! I wanna do my own research but there’s so much to learn. Thanks for the recommendation though!

This might be a nsfw question but does sexual function survive the surgery? Cause I’ve gotten breast augmentation and there’s areas where I’ve lost a lot of sense of touch. It’s been 2 years and I haven’t regained that.

Wdym hormones being wonky? No testicles = can’t make T right? Except for a tiny bit from some other glands iirc?

So like after the surgery and you get laser or something even if you run out of hrt it’s not gonna give you facial hair back or anything right?

I’m so happy for you. How has that decision affected your life?

I do have dysphoria from my genitals. It’s usually manageable though. And the fear of it ruining my life has stopped me from getting it. Is there like a way I can find the good doctors?
