I've been on HRT for 84 days and I couldn't be happier!! Not really seeing/feeling any obvious physical changes yet (that could be down to dose level or that the changes are so small that I'm not seeing them) but I'm feeling so much better overall. 💛💜🏳️⚧️🦊
@vulpine Got my resupply last week so I'm good for another few months, or until I increase my dose (waiting on getting some blood tests done first)
@renbymon brief internet research shows that 2mg daily is the lowest (introductory) dose. Raising eventually to a proposed maximum of 8mg.
Whilst out medication varies my Endo also started me on a VERY low dose that had minimum impact and I only really saw changes at the one year mark when the dose was raised. At two years my dose is now at cis female levels and the changes are more pronounced. It is rather a marathon. That said boosting your intake to maximum off the bat apparrently leads to conical breasts, so it’s worth the wait
@Pipponprops I've been taking 4mg daily (which was the lowest I saw recommended for DIY) and I'm gonna stay on this until I've had a couple of liver function tests and monitored my hormone levels for another few months. Might up my dose to 6mg in Jan if all is going well
@renbymon That's quite a stock of booster packs
