Off T for medical reasons. A question

Luckily, it's temporary but I've been off T for medical reasons for a few months. My skin has cleared up and my pores have shrunk back to their normal size (if only they'd stay that way). Beard is still coming in as thick as ever. Haven't felt so good and wondering if it's a factor other than the medical issues I'm experiencing. Had a wicked migraine I suspect could only have come about due to estrogen. Haven't had one since I got on T.

But one thing I was expecting to experience hasn't come about. No monthly. And I'm still too young for menopause. My female relatives also seem to go through menopause later than some. My mom was a lot older than I am when she went through it. Think she had her last only a few years ago.

I've heard of guys stopping T after like 5, 10 years and having babies and I haven't been on it that long. If any of you have been off T for any length of time or know someone who has, how many months did it take for the monthly to reappear? Or has the factory shut down for good?

Disclaimer: just in case anyone's wondering due to my 'stealth' rant, no, I'm not de-transitioning. Though being off T may be causing me to be depressed.

I've had cramps a couple times and a couple times I was sure I'd see red when I got to the bathroom. But nothing's happened.

It could just be taking a while.  Depending on how long you were on testosterone it's possible your body is have a hard time bring up the estrogen production.

Could be the lack of estrogen production. Could be the things have atrophied so if they're not kicking out eggs then it's not likely to cause a shark week to happen. I'm thinking lack of estrogen (or progesterone) though.
