What is unusual about having to get up in the night? Most everyone I know has to do that.

I went to the lab doctor again who said that she will look and talk to endocrinologist. One endocrinologist that she spoke said that it's not legal in Greece to prescribe hormones for transition issues that's why it's difficult to find one to do this. She also told me that she really wants to help me because is dangerous to be self medicated and she will look to find another doc or physician.

I want to start taking E but I'm waiting to find a doc first.

If I wont find soon what other thinks should I check to my blood to feel safe? I'm thinking of taking gel or patches cause I heard they are safer. Is it possible to check for a thrombosis situation or something via lab tests? I only checked my liver and T. My mother is taking novartis patches and is fine, of curse she went to a gynecologist first to check if she can go for HRT, she is 53.

I guess there is at least one benefit of having to wear diapers, you dont have to get wake up at night.

Getting up in the "middle" of the night is nature's way of helping us enjoy what few hours we have left on planet Earth. If we needed to sleep, we would. Enjoy naps, enjoy what sleep you get. And just because it isn't light outside or the hour seems early, screw it. Get up, pee, and do something enjoyable, meaningful. Life's short.

Just an update...

These days I feel my T has raised a bit. My need for sex and masturbation came back at some point although my erections are medium to soft. Other symptoms that show low T are still here.

I'm afraid If my libido comes back, I will have to raise my cypro dosage to 50mg to see how it will go...I was so happy that it worked with such a low dosage... Should I just stay to 25mg since I was almost at castrate levels and have a blood test later? Maybe in a month?

I also want to start E, I think that I will buy from

pharmacy-network (http://www.pharmacy-network.com/product ... gory_id=42). Have anyone bought from there?

The changes in the body take a while to be noticed. 50mg is a low dose. Think most would not notice any effect at 25mg.
