Hi I've been a member of he site for a few years but have kept my head down, prefering instead to use it as a source of advice and factual info. However today things have changed a bit and I was hoping to start a blog detailing my experiences. But for the moment that part of the site is down so I'm gonna post here - if there are no objections.

So today - what changed? Well after years of self tormenting (in every sense ;)) I, with the help of Jesus, found a practitioner to assist me in my goal of becoming nongendered (smoothie). After an initial consultation last year I took the decision to tak action on the issue and today I recieved my first dose of Triptorelin - The advice I've been given by my Dr is a little different than that appearing on these boards.

I'm told to expect an increase in T levels for the first 2 weeks and then a gradual decline to T levels between 1 and 3 after about 6 weeks. At this point I should expect to become "menopausal". The first jab lasts for a month and all further doses for 3 months. Its an expensive way to go but I want to be sure this is what I want before surgery.

So right now Im not noticing any changes at all, as you would expect. Injection point is a little sore but nothing unusual there. Mentally I looking forward to the road ahead and am waiting to see if and how this affects me.

The temporary increase in T is normal. Your body is going to attempt "fight off" the shut down of T production by producing more. Eventually, the injection will take the lead and T will fall.

Thats what the Dr says Kristoff :)

So far 3 days in and I've noticed no major differences - my testies do seem a little more sensitive than usual but this could be because I'm quite conscious of my body at the moment as I wait for any change. Either way nothing exciting to report and its very early days yet anyway.
