Next week my E is getting doubled from the initial dose. Can I expect changes to pick up pace,  or do they just kinda carry on? X

I started a low dose of AA and E back in July and last week I got my E doubled and so far I haven't really noticed anything different. my doctor said I can double my AA too but it would be good to start with one first, so I doubled the E for a week and today I actually took my first double dose of Spiro, so we'll see how this goes. transitioning definitely takes patience!

I started early July too,  so it sounds like we're on very similar track. I'm on GNRH blockers for my AA so I know (and can tell) my T is already gone, there is nothing to increase there.
I'll update on this thread any new observations.
Good luck on your E ride! X

Started in June of last year at mid doses of e and s, 2 months later increased the e by 50% and remained steady on the s. Things began cooking about a month after that, both with body changes and emotions as well. Was it due to needing 3 months to manifest or was it the increase dosage, no way to tell. Just a warning, if your journey is at all like mine, tighten your seatbelt because the ride will get wild(er?). Whatever the case enjoy the magic!

It has really been enjoyable watching your journey Megan, thank you for letting us share in it. You continue to teach us a lot.

Hugs,
Tia Anne

1. Pain in electrolysis increased
2, my emotions ramp up more too

Anne,  thank you,  I'm quite happy with the current pace,  and while liking the changes,  faster could be interesting!
Laurie,  thank you. I'm curious to see how much closer to the surface my emotions get. X
