I think that androcur is well worth a go.
Just keep an open mind that it may or may not work out for you. But there’s only one way to find out…
(I now have to stop over thinking it and follow my own advice with the oestrogen! )
I'm coming to the conclusion I will at least try androcur , lack of back up from my doc has knocked my confidence somewhat otherwise I'd probably have already ordered some.
I know what you're going through, as I'm doing the same thing to myself about ordering up new meds... I'm not quite as bad as last year though!
You may find that if you start taking androcur your GP's then willing to give you blood tests, to make sure that you're not harming yourself.
I think my doc would probably section me ! He seemed deeply unimpressed when I spoke to him. He wanted me to have counselling instead so I've chatted to them (alone as wife isn't keen since she's as happy as Larry with her current state) they're sympathetic and understanding but telling me to exchange intimacy in a new form such as giving each other small gifts like flowers made me laugh so hard I thought I'd have a seizure. So, I reckon I'm on my own so far as British medical professionals go.

Oh dear! I'm sorry that you've had such a bad experience... Sounds like your GP is a bit behind the times.

The product of a different age plus very cautious about being seen as giving encouragement to this sort of thing.

I think it may help that my GP's female and fairly young - far less hang ups...

I believe that many marital problems result from unbalanced libidos in couples who otherwise enjoy being together. How many divorces result from "sexual incompatibility" - tens of thousands, millions, tens of millions? What is the cost to individuals and society? If a male has excessive libido it's so easy to deal with by suppressing T or castration. How long will it take before these options become part of accepted medical practice and covered by insurance? Therapy is, so why not castration?
