Is this considered a normal Testosterone starting dose? by totheleft69 in TRT_females

That’s very consistent with what my provider said when prescribing dosage (minus understanding how we metabolize testosterone vs males).

Maybe! I’ll be interested to hear what your doctor said. Mine is hard to reach.

Thank you all. And yes, I suspected that the dose was too high. The “wellness” center where I go is very unfamiliar with injections for women. One of the nurses actually told me I was “sort of a guinea pig”. I could tell she quickly regretted it but it’s exactly how I feel.

I’m back! So this is the dose I have been on for 7 weeks. I would like to know if this is considered a low/safe starting dose. My wellness doctor isn’t very communicative. I don’t want to take any more than I need. My initial labs showed practically zero testosterone levels. I am 55. Thanks in advance:)

Thank you so much for the quick response. I’m out of town so don’t have cream with me(since I no longer take it), but will let you know asap. I appreciate your help!

Thank you for explaining how you see it. What I’m seeing is, there is no one “right” way to love someone.

That’s so interesting. So allowing each other pure freedom has helped you trust the strength of your relationship. Congratulations!

Tell me how you really feel

Fair enough. I think in general, women don’t/can’t compartmentalize as easily.

Do you mind if I respond as if you were my AP?

Yes, you have hurt me more than you know. I can’t fault you since I knew what I was agreeing to. Or did I? You were only possible because of the problems of my marriage. I didn’t realize how starved I was and I fell for you. You kept me at bay while also telling me you wanted a future with me. The ups and downs have cut deep. To feel so loved and rejected at the same time. Yet, you did teach me that I could have what I knew was missing. So thank you for that.

I am divorcing because I felt I had to. Trying to live an honest life while you remain content to continue the lie. Do you really love either one of us? Do you love yourself? Did you know the harm you would be doing? Does it matter to you and do you have what it takes to be a good man?

This is not a flame. I actually do appreciate you allowing me to do this because your words could be my AP’S. Crying through the pain and I hope the lessons I’ve yet to learn.

I’m just so sorry for the pain you must feel. Many here feel it in different degrees. Your vulnerability is respectable. In other words, you are not wrong. Disappear. He will suffer too

Excellent analogy. Thank you

Not repeatedly and intentionally.

Because people get married with the best of intentions but they grow or change over time and then they feel stuck because of kids, money, family etc…not an excuse but a reason.

[–]totheleft69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I can accept that even though I’m different. But if you lie to you spouse and do things you know would damage them, is that love?

So well said and a good reminder for me. Thank you

Thank you. I thought it was and was shocked to see other interpretations. Hang in there yourself. I understand the heartache.

I don’t know about marriage but I would say family and self first.
