Three month and a half on 12.5mg of androcur. I´ve shed more tears in three months than all my life. Yesterday I cried while I was talking with a friend. Well, most of the days I´m right. There are certain things that move me and make me cry and I´m prone to tears. Masturbation is diferent and less frequent, Erections are weaker, I think I´m impotent and in the past days I´ve noticed zero sperm. Only a ridiculous and negligible amount of clear liquid. Sometimes when I ejaculate, If It can calls as such, only give some urine drops and nothing more. I´m still having sex fantasies but they are less and fastly vanished.

Mmm is strange I feel my sexuality like I were in puberty. I think is the nearest to what I can describe my new sensations, when I masturbate I feel like I were re-discovering my sex!!!!

It has been four months since I started this journey. With 12.5mg of androcur daily I think my T have reached a steady low level. I would like measure It , but now I´m going through financial hardship. So I´ll leave androcur and the next month I´m going to start on depo provera.

As I said before, I´m almost impotent and dry of sperm. I´ve put on weight which is not completely attributable to androcur because I´ve had some family problems and when I´m stressed I tend eating more:D.

Annoyingly, sexual thoughts refuse to dissapear completely, However they are unable to last enough as to move me to masturbation or exciting me enough for an erection. And when It occurs, which is infrequent, is very weak and unproductive. In despite of this I can surely say that I think less in sex than before.

as I have no spontaneous erections my penis looks much smaller and my testicles are shrinked.

Also I´ve noticed that my hair looks thicker and longer as when I was a teenager! In fact It grows faster.

My body hair, by contrast, is thinner and take too long to grow after shave It.

Androcur 12.5 mg is an VERY low dosage. Are you also taking other meds in addition to this? The recommended dosage is initially 100 mg/a day. Some people will need even higher doses, like 150 (or even 200) mg. However, with dosage over 100 mg/day, liver function tests should be taken from time to time due to potential hepatotoxicity.

Well, I started doing two shots of depo provera and for the first two weeks I took finasteride and spironolactone at the same time that I was on androcur 12.5mg.

But after a month I stopped all the drugs and only stayed on a quarter of androcur to now.

Also I´ve been injecting a contraceptive each month over the last two months. I think I forgot mention this.That is a generic and contains estradiol and one progestin. The last contraceptive that I injected me was divilitac, generic name, and contains 150mg algestone acetophenide and 10mg estradiol. I´have noticed that with contraceptives combined with androcur my libido low some more than with androcur alone. Sometimes I think there´s no much difference though.

But why are you taking so many meds at the same time? You know, all drugs have side-effects. If you just wanna get castrated, just one of those will do in appropriate dosage. I've been using psychiatric drugs for years, and many of those have really disturbing side-effects and can be hazardous if used recklessly.

In fact Since three moths ago I stopped taking all the other meds and stayed only on 12.5mg of androcur daily up to now. The contraceptive injection was just a try and only was applied two times within the past two months.

I managed to buy a new androcur supply. I can´t believe that Today has been FIVE months on androcur!

A few minutes ago I tried in vain mastubate. Was gratifying find that I was totalyl unable to have an erection!

Even think in sex for try exciting me failed as I find very very hard imagine sex fantasies.

On the other hand my behaviour towards others has changed. I´m more smiling and delicated, less and less male attitude. My movements are smoother.

Do you think my behavioural and mental changes are due to androcur too?

Or perhaps It is because subconsciously my mind is trying to adapt to the new body changes and little by little I´m trying to accepting the new me with low T?

whatever great changes with a low androcur doses.:D

blessings!!

Perhaps, increase it a bit, if you can afford it. Otherwise, I understand that DP is a less expensive option.
