I have self medicated using therapeutic doses of pharmaceuticals at levels commonly prescribed to transitioning women

Curiously when you were on BO, did you notice any difference with your hair line? Not that you may have had that issue, just curious if you noticed a difference.

Have receding hair line specifically on temples & started taking biotin last summer(mid July). The only improvement I noticed was fingernails became smoother. However after starting BO in December I can see my hair line filling in & new hair growing in established areas. Though it seems a slow process. Still taking Biotin every other day. Nails became stronger & less prone to breaking. Yay!

I would consider the PM/WP route if the hair line improvements remain. Though when on HRT via a Doc's orders years ago was when my hair line began receding. Wrinkles, fine lines & pores also became more apparent. For me HRT seemed to have the opposite effect of what I had hoped for while BO seems to be working well. That said, not thinking BO is recommended as a long term route.
