Hi all, I have just started taking Spiro been on it for one week and don't really feel any different. I know its not that long but how long will it take to feel effects and how effective is it compaired to Androcur ? I am considering buying Androcur next month however I will probably stay on Spiro for atleast one month and give it a chance to work.
I have read some posts here but not really found what I was looking for. I hope someone with the relevant experience can reply to my post. Thank you so much in advance.

Depend on your T levels, it could take up to two weeks or a little more or less before you start noticing any effects, some will get hot/cold flashes some don't. Your strength will start to decline if you don't work out and your erections may get weaker and may completely go away along with your interest in sex.

Spironolactone is said to be a weak antiandrogen, compared with Androcur, which is said to be highly efficient. Both should normally work, as Androcur is not used in the US but spironolactone is (incl. for the transgender people).

Androcur contains the active ingredient cyproterone acetate, which is also available as siterone. I found cyproterone acetate very effective.
