Title: Stopping Marijuana while on HRT
Post by: LaurenSparkle on November 07, 2018, 06:51:53 AM
Hi, I've been smoking weed before I started hrt but have slowly been stopping over time I'm currently been smoking in bongs only 1 or 2 every 2 days I'm not actually craving it or anything as I only used it to escape to deal with the 2 years wait time to get my actual tablets.

I've been on them for about a month and 2 weeks I don't know how it's going to effect me I was abit of a heavy smoker of it but never smoked in spliffs it's been for a month but that was months ago and have been coming off since.

I suffer from anxiety so I'm aware that doesn't help that's my stupidity.

Hi LaurenSparkle, it's good that you have chosen to discontinue marijuana use.  The effects of its use can be detrimental to Estradiol efficacy.  There are a myriad of other problems that it can cause also, one you pointed out that it can cause anxiety. 
You hadn't advocated its use and that is why your post stands.  The use of marijuana isn't legal in the state that Susan's Place is based in, so it isn't allowed to be promoted here in the forums.

Good luck in your efforts, Jessica

 As the use of marijuana is illegal where the site's servers are located, discussion of its use is not allowed. The political atmosphere in the USA is such that we need avoid causing issues that may impact on the sites continued function.
