Does anyone else crave or hrt?

[londynlady]

I'm Londyn and I've been on hrt (two  daily patches worn one week,  Spiro daily,  progesterone daily, and 2 folbic tablets daily) for about 3 months and I see results with my breast and skin a little but I'm gaining weight in my stomach more than anywhere, my questions are 1) does anyone know when the redistribution of fat starts? 2) does anyone crave like a pregnant woman? 3) my penis stopped functioning but starred again. Anyone else?

You could try a bit light exercises to keep a toned body... walking, biking, or swimming, regularly a few minutes a day...

The craving is normal... you might notice an increase in scent and a shift in cravings... like for spicy food...

concerning fat, one doctor recommended avocado oil... because of different fats and further substances included than in normal oils...
they say it might help with a bit of female distribution... they explained it like there are oils that are preferrably used for the belly...

 Well considering I'll have been on HRT for 6 months tomorrow I will say

My winky died the first week. It's still dead today
My tummy shrank
Cravings are crazy. Pickles especially.

When I started on progesterone it made me horny and hungry to the point I ask my Endo  about it and he halved to dose  to make things more normal. I wasn't the only one in my group who had issues with it. In my case the tablet could be broke in half and my Endo said it was cheaper to continue using the same tablet and break them in half using one tablet for two days. As long as I was on hormones I continued to break that tablet in half. I had one knife that was reserved for the task and I would do it on a spoon so if the tablet didn't break clean, I still had all the parts.

There are nowadays special cutters for that... pharmacys use them as well. They might also be asked to do this. They are available to separate in two pieces, four, etc. Its a bit like one of those egg or apple cutters with segments.
