has anyone else experienced the passing of liquid gas since starting on hormones? 

i never had this issue before, but now that i have been in hormones for 18 months its been happening frequently and wont stop. 

i eat pretty healthy, not a lot of junk food.  good bowel movements.

im a 33 year old pre-op mtf ts in good health, clean physical. 

I'm not quite sure what you mean by liquid gas, although further description probably won't be good for anyone eating or drinking.

Haven't heard of anything like that before, don't know how or if it could be connected to HRT.

I'd suggest seeing a gastroenterologist to get any problem sorted.

Has anything changed in your diet since starting HRT?
You could be suffering from IBS.
I thought I was for a while I would bloat, have unstoppable gas, even leak a clear liquid. It was he'll, so bad at times I couldn't eat for 24 hours. Turned out it was the fruit in my diet, which I've now given away.

I do suffer from IBS, though the symptoms you mention are very rare for me.

I HAVE noticed my bowel function changing and getting slower on HRT. I'm not sure whether it has to do with changes in the muscle tone of my intestinal muscles or the fact that Spiro dries my system out.

I've gone to several different GI folks for my IBS. None of them did any good. One of them gave me about 28 pages of possible treatments involving various dietary, probiotic, and fiber supplement therapies, and told me to try each one until I found one that works. Another gave me muscle relaxants (which did nothing).

So I'm not issuing a ringing endorsement of going the medical route on this one. I don't think they really know much about this. Best thing I ended up doing for myself is cutting out junk food, eating fruit instead of fruit juice, getting lots of whole grains and fruits and vegetables and staying away from cheese and fatty meats.

Don't know if this helps, but it's all I know.

OK now that I am over my initial gross out. Ohter than Hormones is there any other type of medication you are on. A while back on an advertisement about a medication, it think havingto do with colesterol,  liquid or oily anal discharge was a side effect. Ok, now I am totally grossed out again.

Are you dieting? I've heard that a fat substitute, (olean?) does that too.

Gas only takes on a liquid form when it is cooled to a certain temperature.

The way I see it, you have two options, cool yourself until it becomes a solid, or heat yourself until it becomes gas again.

Yay science!

   Way to go Tori a very simple solution to a runny problem!Your either a block of ice or a crispy critter!

It is so simple, I am surprised nobody else suggested it.

another term would be sharting. 

not on a diet.  i take estrogen, premarin and spiro and my thyroid med.  the sharting didnt start till i started hormones sept 2012. 

its getting really old and annoying! 

Just here because the thread title intrigued me...

Alcohol?

I've mentioned it other dietry threads - I also have IBS and the main agitators were dairy products (especially whey protein) and yeast. Cutting out breads (white flour has lots of yukky stuff In it)band dairy has had a major impact on bloating and output.

I will have milk in a dark tea or coffee (max 1 a day) and dark chocolate.

Mine hit randomly - probably after a work stress episode I stopped digesting dairy.

As with any food issue - it probably takes about 2 weeks of abstaining, and keeping a good food diary to really notice changes.
