FWIW, I recently started on Estradiol with informed consent. I just told my doctor I wanted feminizing hormones and was referred to an endocrinologist who gave me the prescription. No problem at all. Since I'm already on dutasteride, for BPH, I didn't need spiro.

Why is progesterone needed? will he lower T level?

So thats 5mg finasteride

100mg of spironolactone

and 100mg progesterone daily.

Ill continue to update, and Ill have my next blood test in 6 weeks.

Cheers!

I find it interesting that you're on progesterone and no estradiol. Why?

I asked my endocrinologist assistant about estrogen by phone message and he refused to give it to me.

I had no problem at all. I told my doctor I wanted to take it and was referred to an endo who prescribed it. Since it was informed consent, we had a chat about what I wanted and the health implications.

You need to find another doctor then.

Hi Castration 2019. Just wondering how you are doing? Did you have a follow up this week? How did it go? How do you like your Dr? I feel I should stop messing around self prescribing and struggling with androcur and all its side effects and get the proper help.
