hormone replacement therapy

Way back when, my voice deepened, I grew facial hair, and I gained a lot of weight. I am on norethindrone to stop my period. I thought I could quit taking testosterone. Until I found out I'm balls deep in menopause and my body is not producing any hormones. So I've taken testosterone every week for the last month. I used to take .3ml but now I'm up to.5ml. I can already tell my voice is changing again. But that seems to be the only thing that is happening. Then again it's only been one month. Pauley helps me with my injection cuz I'm awful at drawing it out. I don't notice any energy difference. My libido is non-existent cuz I have sexual aversion disorder with sexual repulsion. Most trans guys get a major boost but I never did. I'm wondering how deep my voice is gonna get.

I'm starting HRT (testosterone specifically) tomorrow!! I'm ecstatic. If anybody has any advice I'd love to hear it. I can't wait!!! #Transgender #trans #Transman #HormoneReplacementTherapy #LGBT

I'm supposed to be starting testosterone Monday, I have an appointment for a nurse to teach me how to do injections. But because of a pharmacy mess up I might not have the testosterone on time and may have to reschedule. It'd only be around another week but I was so excited and being autistic makes little things like this much harder to cope with :( #Transgender #trans #HormoneReplacementTherapy

Is there a perimenopause group on the Mighty? I know there's a few private ones on FB, but I quit FB. Anyone else feel like their losing their minds while going through this or have spouses going through it?

only recently have I become aware, or allowed myself to be okay with it, hat I am interested in hormone therapy. I believe I look too feminine and want to masculinize my body. I love my body, but I wish I could grow a beard. I wish my voice was deeper. I want to grow more muscle mass. chest hair would be cool too. but I am afraid of the unknown. what if I hate it? what if I don’t become what I imagine in my head? what if my beard is patchy? I don’t want my sex parts to change but I want my body to.

have you thought about hormone therapy? do you full dose or micro dose? or have you decided against hormones?

After 8 months on hormone replacement therapy, I finally had a normal menstrual cycle this month. It seems like a little thing, but I spent a long time having increasingly erratic mood swings and depersonalization on occasion. I thought it was a change in my mental health, but my psyciatrist encourages me to look for a medical explanation. Turns out I have almost no testosterone in my body. Even women should have a certain level of testosterone, but I had way too little, so I was diagnosed with a hormone imbalance, likely due to changes in my brain. I'm now using birth control, not to prevent pregnancy, but to alter my hormone levels. It took a lot of doctors and a lot of medications and a lot of discouragement, but this month was the old normal cycle I remember. So yes, I'm doing the happy dance. It's a little thing, but I feel more like myself. #HormoneReplacementTherapy #hormoneimbalance #moodswingsgalore #BrainAbnormality #alzheimers #AlzheimersDisease #earlyonsetalzheimersdisease #GeneticMutation
