Hi everybody!!! I used to take estrofem sublingually, which is estradiol hemihydrate, and my feminization has been amazing all this time!!!! Unfortunately, it was discontinued in my country, so I'm starting my transition now with progynova!!!! I like the sublingual way, because estradiol enters more quicky into the bloodstream and it avoids the first pass through the liver!!!! My endocrinologist do not know much about trasgenders, he told me there is litlle difference about estrofem and progynova!!! It takes me between ten to fifteen minutes to dissolve the pill under the tongue!!!! So, anyone has experienced progynova sublingually??? What about feminization???? Have you seen feminizing results!!!! Estradiol levels are higher???? Thanks!!!!! Best wishes to all!!!!
I took progynova and let it dissolve i liked it but i like estradiol way better and it dissolves very quick...

I tried disolving Progynova (which is estradiol valerate in a tiny candy-shell blue pill) under my tongue too. But it took several minutes and I never knew how much of the medication was actually getting absorbed. So I just swallow them as it says to do on the instructions. Is there any study out there that ever proved dissolving them was any less risky?
