I think you need to explain more about what you want to achieve. At the very least you should take medication for osteoporosis and that might be hormonal. If you want to feminize you should take estrogen. If you want to just do enough to avoid side effects of testosterone withdrawal then you'd take a bit of testosterone. If you wanted to return to male functionality then you'd take full does of testosterone.
The other aspect of the decision is cost. Getting HRT isn't necessarily covered by insurances, and if it is you might not get much choice in terms of what type. If you don't have insurance then it can add up.
Lastly it depends on the application. Do you really want to be self-administering injections every week? I've done a lot of steroids, but never really got used to sticking a needle into myself.
I am impotent and any injections of testosreone will not return me to functionality. I am aware of the need for calcium supplements. Meanwhile it will be a wait and see attitude for this individual who wishes to remain a male.

After having a conversation with the doctor, I scheduled an appointment for the 24th of September. My nex question is hormones or not?
Regreen maybe able to offer some of his experience from his appointment on the weekend just gone.
Dr. Arnkoff performed "the Procedure" on me on Sept 24 and today is the 26th. I have minor pain with little leakage, if any. I found hime to be quite professional and the process to about 45 minutes.
Would you have been OK to get on an aeroplane after the procedure or the next day, for a 12 hour trip?
I'm in the UK and am planning the logistics of making a visit to Dr. Arnkoff. I think Detroit is the nearest airport but there are no direct flights from the UK I understand, so it's a long trip with a change.

Linsey, have you looked at Delta Airlines website. A KLM flight from an UK airport will connect with Delta flights at Amsterdam's Schiphol and onward direct to Detroit Wayne County airport.

I would not advise flying until at least 2-4 days after any surgery on a long trip. Especially one as there is most likely a drain installed.
Delta Airlines has non-stop service from Heathrow to DTW 2 flights a day. KLM also sells seats on those flights as well, so check both for the best price. Good luck.
