So I went for my first hrt lab results and the doc was concerned due to I had no measurable testosterone.
Ive been on the same dose for 2 months.
I think this explains my dark depression, my achey joints.
This is supposed to be a happy time. I will say that considering my complete lack of testosterone, I have had quite a few happy times.
However once I get bummed, it spirals right into suicidal thoughts. It could be anything, "my chin is to big", "my arms are to large", "she called me sir", "he called me bro"
Well at least there is the possibility that once my t gets balanced out, Ill be able to face these hurdles without jumping off a building or boring a hole in my head.
I guess its good I can afford a doctor, who knows how deep this depression could of gotten.
Really the opposite problem happens here I become extremely unstable when my T level rises.
Even natal females have a T level of approximately 10 ng/dL or slightly higher, due to T produced by their adrenal glands. Some low level of T is generally necessary, so I hope yours is minimal (< 100) without actually being zero. It could certainly contribute to depressive moods, so you might want to consult an endocrinologist, if possible.
a little of the terrible t is necessary
Jillian,
actually ever tried to figure out WHY it is/went this low?
That be teaching some of us some? - just my thinking.
Thanks,
Axelle
100 mg of spiro twice daily
Now I am under the care of an HRT specialist
My T was actually less than 1, so it was unmeasurable
I imagine it must of been low to start
