Title: HRT Effects
Post by: SforaNymph on March 12, 2016, 07:28:35 AM
Okay I have a weird question. I know Spiro, and Estradiol will shrink the prostate. Now is it normal to experience a dull little pain from it or not? I don't want to over react since I have not been on HRT that long. It started yesterday. I have noticed my area around my nipples have enlarged and they are sore kind of and I have only been on HRT for 4 days.

Thanks.

Breast pain is normal.  But I have never heard of the other pain from HRT.  I wouldn't worry about it though unless it keeps up for a few days or gets worse.  If that happens you should talk to your Dr.

It don't bother me or hurt. I know both Spiro and estrogen causes the prostate to diminish in size. I was making sure the little on and off very dull feeling down in the bottom area is normal lol.

Thanks for your help Deborah.
