Quick update: those following will know I've been having some minor issues with my HRT.
Estrogen wise my latest measurement was 252pmol/L. This is below the GICs preferred 300-400 range and I confirmed with them last week that they would like to see me in this range. For previous blood tests I've been following some NHS published guidance I found that said I should wait 14 hours since my last dose. As this was also the smaller of my current split dose, I agreed with the GIC that I'd check my levels again without such a long gap from a small dose. I'll share this result when I get it. I'm currently on a moderate dose size of oral E, and have room for further increases in my current medication if my levels are still too low.
Testosterone wise, I felt that my last 12-weekly jab was loosing is effect after 9 weeks. The GIC agreed this can happen, and instructed me to have it tested at 10, 11 and 12 weeks on this cycle to see if my levels really are rising. They stated it should be under 3nmol/L. If it goes above this, then the period between my GNRH jabs should be reduced to compensate.
I'm gaining weight slowly [emoji853], but at least some of this is certainly going to my thighs and breasts, so not all bad! [emoji6]
