Does anyone have any suggestions one how these two medications can best be taken. My goal is to lower my sex drive and to increase feminine characteristics.

Thanks:)

One comment. The drugs you list, blockers, will reliably decrease libido, but by themselves they are not reliable feminizers. If you read the package insert that comes with them it will list gynicomastia and feminization as possible side effects, but it is only possible and is unpredictable. Some will get some small degree of feminization but many get none. Would suggest you do some serious questioning of your ultimate long term goals. Many of the effects may not be reversible. If you decide you do want to be more feminine and are willing to be a middle age man with boobs if you decide not to transition, then you should probably add at least a small dose of estrogen.

This is all a hell of a lot safer and more controllable if you are consulting a knowledgeable MD (who is not always easy to find)

I don't know if people here will be disappointed but I've decided to cease and desist for now concerning chemical castration. I know it was psychosomatic but I felt very beat today and warm. . I can't really articulate all that I've been thinking about. Give me some time and perhaps I can shed some light on my decision to stop.

I think that everyone here will be pleased to know that you've decided to take time out to reconsider your direction. One of the major goals of the Archive is to help people to make rational and carefully considered decisions. Don't rush into anything that's permanent.

There are a core of Archive members in the San Francisco area. We do get together occasionally (not often enough) for dinner. Plans are underway for a larger gathering in June where we hope that Archive members will come from a much wider area.
