Needing advice [intimate]

[EndlessEden]

Hello, i am Eden. Ive been on HRT since 11/16, pre-op and i am uncomfortably confused if this is normal. I am afraid something has happened and my levels have changed since certian changes seem to have receeded...

since about 2/17 ejaculatory fluid has been clear, then stopping all together.
Now all of a sudden in the last 2 months, ive expierenced a sudden return of both more fluid and occasionally semi-cloudy inclusion.

To add to it, the only thing that has changed since 5/17 is my injections are failing quite often since 11/17. (estradiol immediately vacating back out the injection site).

Would this change, be contributed by a change in hormonal levels? or is it normal/triggerable.

If the injection vacate the injection site, then it did not work and your estradiol level may be too low. Pretty much all the E ends on on your skin end gets wiped away.

I am using pills so I am not an expert in injection estradiol but you may need to try a different site or technique for injection. And have your levels checked.

I can say that on pills, it did not come back at all. Even the "clear" part of it is now reduced to a drop,

I would start with a blood test and maybe ask one of the nurses at your doctor if there is a good trick for the injections.

I think your testosterone may have come back up...you should ensure your injections are successful everytime. Talk to your doctor ASAP.

@ Sarah:  I am using pills also and I had exactly the same experience about 7 months into my HRT.  Now that I have been on HRT for just over 3 years... no erections, no ejaculations, nothing.   Now a useless appendage which is just fine by me!!!

Try the Z-track method, it helps prevent leakage. Inject slowly and once the needle is out, press on the site with a gauze. Worked for me. Check with a nurse.

I had to switch to pills for a while, and that was what happened for me during that time, it turned out my levels WERE quite wrong, testosterone was high, AND estrogen was low, back on injections now, and I can say everything is back to (ab)normal, although I haven't had levels tested again yet. So you can basically take 3 months off my HRT counter >.>
