Hello everyone!!
I am a 30 year old gal from Los Angeles. Have been on HRT since 23 and all of a sudden in December my hair started falling out my face and body have changed back slowly and my mental state has been deteriorating. I was in a place of nirvana. Happy, exercised, healthy, found true love, great job, lovely home and all of a sudden it all goes puff. I have been going to doctors. The endocrinologist can't figure it out he just says I don't know. These are my side effects and hopefully someone here can shed some light on my matter. I will truly forever be thankful. I have been lactating now for about a month and a half my hair has been falling in clumps for four months and my face changing. I was so frustrated I decided to get an orchiectomy two weeks ago in an effort to find the truth of my problem. It seems as it hasn't helped and now that I am back even though on a lower dose of estrogen I still have the effects of testosterone. I feel as if this whole time the estrogen I take turns into testosterone. I have even been having issues of attraction towards women that scare me tremendously. I never stopped taking estrogen I never stopped taking blockers I did drink more alcohol than usual in Europe and exercised a bit to the extreme the months prior. Also I had a Kidney infection right before my situation went south. I was on a low spironolactone dose and perhaps that was my mistake but I felt healthy in that range. Now it seems as nothing helps nothing makes things better nothing helps my situation. Estrogen seems to make my head itchy and my hair to fall more when I take it. I'm extremely depressed, can't focuse and can't remember anything. I've been thinking perhaps no estrogen and just blockers might help. I have a phone date with him this week. Any ideas any information you might find helpful please share it I will forever be thankful.
Warm Regards,
Nancy P.
