Maybe this is discussed elsewhere, if so please re-direct me.
I am 61 years old, and still in the beginning stages. After3 months of estradiol sublingual and spiro, my numbers are very good, T way down, E nicely up. But... I have experienced (still am experiencing) what I consider extreme hair growth, everywhere. I have more body hair than ever in my life, it is coming in denser and longer and darker and in places I never had any hair before. It's growing back in places where it disappeared 25 years ago. My facial hair is growing back faster and denser and tougher. My doctor, who has years of experience with hundreds of trans* folks, says she has never heard of this, it's the exact opposite of what the spiro & estradiol should do. I have yet to find any web-knowledge. This is driving my dysphoria to new levels.
I also take cardiac meds: lisinopril, atenolol, zetia, atorvastatin. And tamsulosin for BPH, bupropion for depression. Plus daily vitamin, calcium+D, and 2000iu vitamin D. And of course, there is no research I know of that discusses interactions within this cocktail.
Does anyone here have life experience? Or knowledge? Or advice where to look for info?
