How reliable is open gate?

What do we think of...
>6mg E daily (sublingual)
>100mg spiro daily
I take them all at once during nighttime because I'm lazy/cannot be trusted to take them at regular intervals otherwise
These are my latest blood levels at through
My endo refuses to up my dosages or add in progesterone, but I'm asking here to get other opinions.
I'm 5 years into HRT

>>40096522
>I take them all at once during nighttime because I'm lazy/cannot be trusted to take them at regular intervals otherwise
sublingual should really be spaced during the day bc of the short life of it..... just that change would give you better levelxs

>>40096522
6mg sublingual once a day is a really bad idea. Take in some responsibility and space out your doses

>>40096594
>>40096659
How should I space them out, ideally? When I wake up, when I have lunch, then when I take the rest of my meds?

>>40096253 (OP)
Why the fuck is almost everywhere sold out of androcur? wtf

>>40096895
as much as posible. but at least 8-8-8 since its 6mg and i believe your pills are 2mg each, right?

started spiro after being on bica for the last year and ive had awful acne since then and i feel so fucking gross i dont know how to fix it and i cant get labs or anything for a while
is there anything i can do

other than the recommended shit, are there any other things that a person could take in order to help them pass (in theory)? like research chemicals, pills, peptides, creams or whatever else

I'm sitting here begging my doctor to not hon dose me. I've been on E for 16 years, I just changed my prescription back to injections and she wants me to start at 1mg. why are doctors so shit?

when should i start prog? how much should i take?

>>40098388
Because they're trying to treat your hormones like a psychological drug rather than trying to give you any actual physical effects. The doctor's thought process is "I want to give you the minimum dose that will treat the mental condition of gender dysphoria" and not "I want to give you the minimum dose to give you a female hormone profile, the resulting physical and mental effects of which will alleviate your gender dysphoria."

>>40098453
yea I'm about ready to diy again

>>40097282
Yeah 2mg each pill
I'll try 8-8-8
Aside from lab results in levels, can I expect any other results?

I'm planning on switching from Valerate to Ethanate, is there anything I should know or do before switching?

>>40099749
pretty much just that you will need to do injections less frequently

>>40099781
Thank you! Are you on Enanthate (yeah I know I misspelled it in my first post lol)? If so, what's your dose?

>>40098827
i believe less mood swings since your levels will be more stable?

>>40099811
i do 5mg weekly and my levels are good on that, tho i believe the recommended starting dose is 4mg weekly

>>40099824
Just one more question, are you doing monotherapy or do you also take anti-androgens?

>>40099860
im doing mono but theres no problems with taking AA if mono doesnt suppress your T for some reason, i know some people who do that just because it makes them feel better too (mentally, i dont think theres any actual effect)

>>40099891
Alright, thanks again!

>>40099897
no problem nona, good luck :D

>>40096405
i find her to be the best diy person in the world

i'm doing 9mg een and 12.5 cpa atm, just started een 3 weeks ago. no real breast tenderness though, i've stalled since 6mo hrt or so (currently about 1y). how fucked am i for development? 21.5 BMI atm so that shouldn't be an inhibitor right?

>>40096253 (OP)
I love you hrtgen never die hrtgen rebirth from the ashes hrtgen

What's the best way of getting HRT in the UK? The waiting lists and stuff on NHS are too long

What's the saturation point of micronized P4 in mct oil? I'm exhausted of boofin this shit twice a day ToT

>>40100977
UK customs are turbo shit (good)

How did your sexual function change after taking estrogen?

>>40103014
low libido, very rare erections that dont last long (thank god)

canada anons where are you getting antiandrogens?
i’m nervous about ordering through open gate because its coming over the us border

>>40101260
Ok, I have E cypionate, it’s 10mL at 40mg/mL. I injected around 2.5mL weekly. Is that a good dosage?

>>40096253 (OP)
does anyone here get more depressed and suicidal on progesterone? i recently restarted it after being off it for a few months and god i cry myself to sleep every night at the moment. from what i remember it evens out after a while but i'm genuinely a bit worried i'll do something stupid.

>>40097779
lmaooooo. makeup?! outfits?! hair?! socializing?! you kids are so fucking embarassing, its like you literally think HRT magically makes you into a girl.

>>40098453
How are the planned parenthood doctors when you do informed consent since that is my current plan

>>40105173
i get much more emotionally volatile if that counts. if youre already predisposed to depression and suicidality i can see why progesterone would cause issues

>>40105508
are you retarded? where did I say that I think hrt would turn a person into a girl without the need for them to put into some effort. I literally want to know if there is anything else a person could take (that is medical related) that may help but isn't talked about here.

>>40096253 (OP)
when i masturbated today, nothing came out for a few seconds, then a consistency of clear globs came out. its the most thats ever come out since i started hrt. is this cause for concern?
i recently started progesterone a week ago, 200mg rectal, along with finally getting a good E dose. is this a sign of masculinizing? my skin feels the most soft and my complexion is the most clear its been in a long time.

>>40106465
Did you actually ejaculate or are you talking about pre-cum?
You're always gonna produce some variation of pre-cum, and even trace amounts of sperm.

>>40106562
it was 100% ejaculate and it only came out when i orgasmed, it was definitely not pre cum

>>40098388
>she

>>40106465
clear cum is normal

>buy fin to test the waters
>2 dollars 50 cheap price
>shipping cost is 25 dollars
:/

are these levels good?
0,42 nmol/L testosterone
256 pg/ml estradiol

>start prog
>getting frequent erections
Is this normal? It's pretty worrying tbqh

>>40107967
i'm not an expert but from a quick google search DHT is relevant in erections so it might be because of that which is worrying yes

>>40108083
It's fucking over. Does bica block dht at least?

>>40108099
it seems like yeah bica should also work against DHT the same way it does for T

>>40108220
Ok awesome I should be safe once my bica levels peak in a week or so. Thanks nona :]

Should I get HRT if I really want to be a woman and I think about it everyday, but I don't hate being a man? And also It would ruin my chance at my career and also it tear apart my family and also I'm 6'1" so I would never pass?

>>40108276
it depends
do it anyways, you can just manmode if you fail, while still not masculinizing

>>40108276
thats not really an hrt question

>>40108290
I just hope literally no one ever sees me with my shirt off again.

Fuck my life.

>>40108441
since I got gyno as a teenager I stopped swimming, going to the beach and always wear shirts or jackets, HRT made that a bit more difficult but honestly I don't regret it
I have a pretty masculine face but HRT got me down to some degree of androgyny

>>40107193
my worry is the amount of volume from it rather than it being clear

>>40108276
how would it ruin your chance at your career? stealth is shockingly easy

>>40109032
I suppose technically I could just mannose forever but I kinda don’t see the point lol. Especially since someone might find out at some point and then everything’s fucked

>>40109135
Manmode*

>>40109135
manmoding doesn't compute in people's minds, they have no idea that men taking estrogen exist, I bet it wouldn't be that bad
