Title: Low estrogen dose high estrogen level
Post by: Jennifer_Lynn on March 11, 2012, 01:49:15 PM
Hi,

Has anyone experienced high estrogen levels on a very small dose? I use injectable Esdradiol valerate (I can't say dose because of forum rules) and I'm down to a small dose of sprio. My T level is immeasurable. I'm experiencing good feminization and breast growth. I feel fine. No side effects to speak of. Anyone else experienced this or have any insight into why this is happening?

Jennifer

I have extremely high levels on a modest to normal dose for a MTF. My only side effect is that I end up crying while watching Too Cute :P

As to why it's happening, it's genetics. I guess some of us just accept estradiol much more readily, and others tend to simply excrete much of it.
