I'm On T, Without Anyone KNOWS

[Derick]

Hi all, Today I've been on t for 1 month 15 days.
I inject my self on thigh weekly. The things that I recognize so far are
I can build muscles more easier and a very slight grow of the clit.  I am frustated because
I record my voice often but I don't notice any changes yet. I do have voice pitch that lower than standard
Girls and people sometimes recognize me as a boy even before I'm on T. I want to know your experience on
T doses, because I'm planning on increasing my dose

I didn't read it, so I guess I must delete this post, because its against the rule. Sorry for that

Patience ... patience ... patience .... it doesn't happen overnight.  Puberty lasts 2-5 years.  A month is only a small space of time for changes.  I have been on T for five months and still haven't had much changes --- but it will happen.

[supremecatoverlord]

Everyone is different - some people change quicker than others and some people change slower.
One months is usually not enough to experience major changes for most people, so just be patient and see what happens.
A higher dosage may not be the answer to faster results by the way if your dose is already quite high (and I may not be aware of what your dose is, but you are so this still applies); anyway, if your levels are way too high, it may cause some of the it may cause the testosterone conversion via aromatase which ultimately may raise your estrogen levels and slow down your transition. Basically, be careful unless you're sure you know what your doing. I know self-medication is regarded poorly here, but if it's something you're obstinate on doing, that's my word of advice.

No need to remove the topic Derick    The post has been edited to fit within the rules and there are allot of nice folks beginning to make good replies

1 month and 15 days - that's about 6 weeks and nowhere near enough time to fully gauge how effectively your dosage is working IMHO.  I am just over 4 months and my voice was not noticeably deeper on recordings until the 3 month mark.  Around that same time, my facial hair began coming in and now my stomach has a nice little snail trail of black fur.  I agree with what has been said - upping your dosage too much can be either ineffectual on virilisation or detrimental - not counting what it could be doing to your body otherwise.  I inject 3-weekly - the standard dosage.  I am virilising at a rapid rate compared to some, so dosage and even frequency is not necessarily something you should increase - our bodies respond to T differently.  That is why being under the supervision of a doctor is so important.

My advice is to stop self medicating and go through a doctor.  I know it's hard to wait and go through the proper channels but it's vital to protect your health.

[Jayr]

Wait, when did he say he self medicated?
Did it say that where it was edited?

Cause guys that are prescribed T do there own shots (most)
and you can ask your doctor to increase your dose.

If it was edited out that he self medicated than ignore what I said :p
But right now I don't see anywhere that it says he does.

[wheat thins are delicious]

He's saying he wants to increase his dose.  No where does he mention that he wants to talk to his doc or anything about it, so yeah I view that as self medicating.

[Jayr]

Joey told me she wanted to up her dose.
Later she told her doctor, and her doctor upped her dose.


He doesn't say he self medicates either.
We shouldn't assume.

Derick are you self medicating?
If so please be very very very careful.
I think seeing a doctor would be much better, and by far much safer!
but if you have no choice(as in; kill yourself, or self medicate.)
Than be very very very careful.

And if you aren't self medicating, and are seeing a doctor about it, than awesome!!
The changes come differently for everyone, be patient and enjoy the ride,
cause once it's over you might miss it

Yes, the self medicating parts were removed

Let's focus on helping this person

[Jayr]

Oh thank you. I didn't see this thread before the edit, so I could only guess from what I see now.


And we aren't allowed to help anyone when it comes to self medicating, so...yeah.
B. Discussing the means to acquire HRT medications without a prescription, and self medication without a doctors care is prohibited.

The only thing we're allowed to tell you is to go see a doctor and ask him to prescribe you hormones.
Good luck Derick!

Update:
If you need a therapist dude, we can find you one! Just let us know where you're at. Or we could even refer you to an online therapist!
Once that's done, I'm SURE we can find you a doctor. We're so many on this forum, one of us must be able to help you out or find information for you.
If you cannot get hormones for whatever reason, there are a bunch of ways too boost testosterone production. (Working out, supplements, foods...)
Let us know what's up man.

I think you should be alittle carefull,
you wirrte nobody knows your on T, and it might lead into some trouble when the effects start to show.
it surely dosent happyent over 1 night, but my voice was noticeable changed druing 3 months so it happents pretty fast also depending on dose and so on. please at least talk to your doctor and so, also he will know about your dose.

[Derick]

Thanks for releasing answers.. I believe I have to be patience and wait for at least 3 months for my voice.. My dosage currently is lower than most *standart dosage* but now I consider it enough for me.

[Natkat]

my dose were also low in the begining, so its probably the same time more or less, even when 2 people arnt simular.
