hello everyone :)
well recently to my last post , I was successful on getting the prescription before going into custody. so I had the hormones to take inside. anyways I have a question about changing the brand of spiro and estrogen. since I'm changing the brands from online pharmacy brands (estrofem and spironolactone) will I have to start over progress some what or will it effect progress at all? I am now changed to estradiol and spiro..
PS I'm asking this question on because shortly after I changed brands of spirolactone I noticed my sex drive went back up..

Since I have two different brands of Spiro - Spirix and Verospirone, I am actually taking both - Spirix in the morning, Verospiron in the evening. In my observations, Spirix is a bit stronger, but I need to use out all my Verospirone supplies as well...

If these medications are the same chemical, prescribed at the same dosage, then the branding (in theory) should not make any difference.

Of course, I notice difference when the pharmacy gets a new supplier for one of the several medications I take.

I take over 30 pills a day with 12 major brands.  No matter how they are supposed to be the same, they never are.  The worse ones are like cymbalta, oxy, and fentynol.  I cringe when the va says they are getting a different stocker.  After that Arizona incident, they were first giving me viagra 3x a day for my lung fibrosis, they changed to this other type that is exactly the same, just a different name.  Think that was the only drug I never noticed a change with.  You would think taking viagra 3x a day would keep things hard even after an orchectomy, but nope:(  it does get hard when I'm nervous for some reason, so now I take xanax if I go see a Dr that's gonna look under the hood.  I don't want to add creepy to my mental eval;)

Although I did the same, I ended going back to buying my meds online again despite being able to buy them locally with that small piece of paper. The pharmacy would rarely be stocked, I need to refill monthly, and the only brand of E they had (meriestra), I did not like it as much as progynova. So I ended ordering the stuff again and having enough stock for several months. Nothing funnier than being off HRT for several days.

I still buy mine online to, it's actually much cheaper that way n my doctor doesn't seem to mind, plus it also gives me more control over what meds I use, like the only thing I buy with a prescription is my bicalutamide (that stuff is so expensive online) which my doctor gave to me, probably because he new if I wanted it, I'd get it one way or another.
Thank-you scorpions...

For looking like Goth lobsters.  :laugh:

Wow, I could have sworn I've been on HRT for longer.
O well this ticker will help me keep track.
