Terry,

Thanks for the info. I'm still deciding whether or not to actually take Androcur (I actually ordered it after reading about it in here, got off line, masturbated, and decided that maybe I shouldn't screw around with my jewels... I might need them someday since I would like to have children).

BTW, how did you get the nerve up to talk to your Dr. about the Androcur?

Note Taking any hormones or androcur or other durg to stop teestosterone production could lead to not being able to have childern. The is one of those your milage will very things. Like I'm very sensitive to estrogen but there individuals out there that never even get pointy nipples even after months of taking estrogen. So if you wish to have childern wait. I've read on the durg company web sites that it's safe to take for 6 months before the side affects start to become perament, that is depending on your bodys reactions you testicles may or may not start fully back up.

Now then, about my few short weeks; in the two weeks that I experienced the full effects, I was extremely pleased. I had new direction in my daily life, I was able to interact with others without mentally evaluating them as potential sex partners, I liked the way I felt, and overall, I got the information I wanted. If those two weeks are typical, I feel much more comfortable about the possibility of making this permanent at some future date.

Hope this info is helpful.

Terry, I was filled with enthusiasm for you at the outset when you started Androcur and very sad that such a rare condition meant you

had to give it up. I'm really pleased that inspite of the bad side-effects that you found so much serenity and learned so much about "feelings"

and also how you generally feel.

Good luck with it whatever your future choices are! Your experiment may have hit the buffers but it hasn't failed has it?

I to am sorry that you could not continue on androcur .I have been on a diffrent drug and i know the feelings you experanced and i am truley sorry that you could not continue because it can be a life changing experance good luck who knows maby somthing will work out for you.

Hey Terry,

Just want to thank you for all the useful information you have provided. I'm on day 2 of Androcur. My plan is go with 100 mg a day until I notice a drop in my libido and then drop it to 50 mg. I don't want to go overboard

So, I'm taking up your noble experiment. Don't think of it as a failure, the information you provided has helped me a lot and may help others as well.

I'll try to keep the board posted on the effects.

i've always been able to talk with my doc about anything. this is really important. if your doc is not open to discussing anything and everything, it can be a problem for both of you. let me give you and example: let's say you've been playing with catheters, and you weren't very careful and you got a nasty urinary tract infection. you should be able to tell your doc just what happened. if he or she says, "well, playing with catheters often results in infections. are you sure that's something you want to continue doing?' then you have a good doc. if he says "WHY would you DO something like that ????" then walk out and find a real doc.

i had a doc back in the eighties who was APPALLED that i shaved my pubic hair, and who asked "WHY would you DO that???" i never went back. and i didn't pay for the visit.

Feeling better in a lot of ways.....bruising is about gone, the cut on my hand is nearly healed, and altho i get horny, i have very pleasant thoughts of my time on Androcur.

TB i agree with you one hundred percent for i to had some bad experances with doctors .But that was comfroting with my present doctor is that he undre stood my problem and worked with me on my problem .It should not be up to the doctor to prescribe his values on you or us.Thanks for your post and good luck.
