Re: Spiro vs. Androcur


What is the reason for taking the 325 mg per day of aspirin, Rowan and Christina? Is it for arthritis?



It keeps the blood thin and helps to avoid clotting. I also take Evening Primrose Oil to help with this.


Also, what do Evanesce and Feminol, the herbal supplements, contain? Do they have ...

Re: Spiro vs. Androcur

Bore me with reports? Not hardly! This is the kind of stuff I love to learn, but have trouble finding. So tell me, how did you quit? I'm thinking cold turkey will be hardest, but best. Patches still pump you full of nicotine which is counterproductive. People may just have to deal with me being the ...

Re: Spiro vs. Androcur

Hi Kelly

Thanks so much for sharing those links! Particularly, the journal reference. That's the kind of stuff I geek over. That definitely gives me some insight as to how these things are processed and, based on that, I think I'll drop the herbs and see what happens. I may take my Estradiol back ...

Re: Spiro vs. Androcur

Yep, I'm also taking a 325mg aspirin every day. I suppose I could use a lower dose, but I didn't even really think about it when I bought them. I was just thinking, "Hmm..I should take aspirin"..hehe. I'm taking 2600mg of Evening Primrose Oil also which is supposed to keep the blood vessels supple ...

Re: Spiro vs. Androcur

Supposedly, research was done on the herbs and they're very liver-friendly. That would be my main concern with them and I've been assured it's not a problem. My other concern is that taking the herbs in conjunction with the drugs is unnecessary overkill and does not give any added benefit. So I'm ...

Re: Spiro vs. Androcur

Hi Christina!

I'm definitely going for feminization although I'm not seeking full transition. I'm going for a very androgynous look. I'm currently taking 200mg of Spiro and I've just recently dropped my Estrofem from 6 to 4mg. I'm also taking herbal supplements, 6 Evanesce and 4 Feminol. You may or ...

Spiro vs. Androcur

Hi all,

I'm new to the list, so I thought I should start with a quick introduction. My name is Rowan and I've been taking Estradiol and Spironolactone for about 4 months as well as some herbal supplements. The spiro serves a dual purpose for me as both an anti-androgen and a blood pressure ...
