Hey Everyone,
I have been on E for around 7 months now. I gradually increased (patch and always working with my GP) to a "low-dose" point. We added in Sprio around month 4 and that's when the breast growth started. This was both amazing and terrifying at the same time which I have been working on in therapy, but I am not at all sure female is my goal. Mostly I am trying to mitigate dysphoria. It's been odd to feel so conflicted in this way, but not entirely unexpected. My bloodwork has technically always been in the "male" range.
Given the conflict, we lowered my E back to the starting dose last month and breast growth has stabilize. I am currently a 36AA, which is no big deal (it's nice really) but now I am starting to see some of the things come back that I would prefer to not have around. I am planning on asking her to up my spiro at my next appointment trying to get my T down but with still a small E supplement.
I am wondering how many have had minor "freak outs" and reduced their hormones for a time? How did it go? Sometimes, after over a year working on this, I feel like I am just as confused as ever!
