I'm about 5 days on t now woo, and over a year on hormone blockers. Last month the nurse was ill and the other nurse refused to do my blocker so it was a couple of days late. Now I am bleeding and it's basically the monthly apocalypse except I haven't had that in over a year and it's upsetting and agh?! You wouldn't think that three days would make much of a difference but obviously it has and all my fears last month were correct. Agh?

Will it stop soon?

I'm really sad tbh and I'm gonna gorge myself on chocolate.

I don't really know if the bleeding will stop soon or not. It depends on the person. I never took hormone blockers, so as far as that piece of it goes, I can't really comment. But I will tell you that I've been on T since December and haven't dealt with the red death since January, so it's possible that this is the last one you'll have while you're on T.

I don't want to tell you that's definitely what's gonna happen, because I don't know for sure. But from everything I've read and heard, the monthly bleeding tends to stop within a couple months after you start taking T. That was one of the main reasons I started taking it. I had two bleeding episodes after T, in December and January, but since then, it's been fine. Aside from a botched injection last week, I'm pretty pleased with T.

If you continue to bleed each month, you may want to get your T and E levels checked. I've heard that some people on T, their E levels just refuse to drop for some reason. But as I said, I've never taken blockers, so that may make some difference in terms of your experience with T.

I really hope you reported that nurse. She can't refuse to give someone their treatment. I'm not on t or anything so I can't help you there but I definitely don't believe what that nurse did was ethical. What if she does that with your t or with someone else and their medicine?

Yeah, it is kind of strange that a nurse would refuse to give you your medication. If that looks to be a regular problem in the making, you should nip that ->-bleeped-<- in the bud.
