You probably start developing boobs before you have a stroke or your heart explodes.
Your osteoporosis and hot flashes will be a thing of the past though, so that is nice.
Big love for the lil' blue pills and spiro chaser.
People are still prescribing Spiro? 😟
Yup! It's sorta standard? The dozen or so girls I know personally are also on spiro. I won't speak to their levels, but mine have been in a Fantasic spot for a long time now. I'm 18 months on HRT and my t levels have been negligible since around the 6 month mark.
I'm lucky enough to be in an area with a good medical support system and have a dedicated endo specific for trans patients. So I am getting regular tests and I am veeeeery happy with my results. Enough so that while I was approved for it, I canceled all my FFS meetings.
Previously on reddit I was warned about using progesterone by someone, but thats another one I am pretty pleased with. So while I absolutely love where you are coming from, and appreciate the caring involved to link that. I'm super duper pleased with my levels, physical changes and not particularly interested in medical advice. ♥ 💕 ♥
That article claims that the standard starting prescription is 200mg spiro, but that's not accurate. It's 100mg, which in the article itself says that the effects from aren't nearly as dangerous as what it says. Also dr. Will Powers is kind of a hack and has in the past threatened Trans Fem Science, a free website where trans people can source academic information, with legal action for publishing criticism about his methodologies.
It's not the only source I've come across criticizing Spiro, and I believe the United States is the only country that pushes that stuff still despite my understanding better options—both estrogen alone and different anti-androgens with fewer side effects—are regularly proscribed in other countries.
Yes I agree CPA is proven to be more effective, but since its not available in the US spirits pretty much the only option. I agree its not the best and monotherapy is probably more viable, but there are very few options in the US especially with the affordability of spiro.
Again, there are things worth criticizing spiro for and its effectiveness - but that article puts out a decent amount of misinformation about the topic
this is the intended subtext of the matrix actually. it's a trans allegory
Im not faniliar with the new drugs today, are these some sort of anti-boy-otics?
Remember kids, just say "neigh" to Premarin.
