Starting out

[Hinoiri]

I went to my doctor today. We discussed my hormonal lab results. Seems that my levels of testosterone is normal and my estradiol is a bit higher than normal. May be my body fat. I weigh 166 lbs when last year I was at 150-155 lbs. Doctor prescribe a bit more estradiol and we see where to go from here in 4 months. I will officially be on hormones when I get my medicine from my pharmacy today. Now to see if there's a badge for it on here.

Congrats on the start of a wonderful journey.

Since your estradiol is already high, the supplemental dose will increase it further, hopefully to suppress the testosterone levels. Understand that that may not work, and your doctor may prescribe an antiandrogen later. Future lab results will guide the decisions. It is best to start slow and steady so your body can adjust to it. It sounds like you are in good hands with this doctor.

Hugs!

Ah well see I told the doctor to start with I prefer to keep testosterone. I told him I'm nonbinary and will be both masculine and feminine. I do want to express being more feminine. So yes we see how that go and I can adjust as needed 4 months from now.
