Lotus, we have communicated on a different thread and I greatly appreciate your help there. I have been on PM and SP only a short time. I am at the 1,000 mg dose of PM and 450 SP. Are you recommending that I get off the PM and go to the OTC Estriol/Estradiol cream. with Progesterone cream and drop the PM and SP? I am 60, diabetic, Low-T and 30 to 40lbs overweght...though I want to drop more like 60. I am not looking for large breasts, but I would like them to look femine. I have moobs as it is LOL but those would likely go away with the weight loss. I would also like some fat redistribution to my hipps and thighs...for a more femmine booty.
I really do not want any Cardiovascular issues. My father had a serious blood clot in his groin and ultimately died of a heart attack. So I am cautious and willing to go slowly.

Hi again Therasa,
Oh cool, we're the same age. Bioidentical hormones such as the creams previously discussed decreases the risk of DVT (does not eliminate the risk though). Do you have a weight loss plan?. I refer to fat redistribution as feminizing fat...because that's what it's doing. Given your risk factors and family history I am concerned about using PM. Has it caused any issues?.
Are you under a doctor's care? and if so have you thought about talking to them?. Apologies for all the questions.
SP didn't agree with me, in fact I hated it lol. Are you taking metformin, finasteride or other meds?, if so please share. Drug interactions can derail breast growth depending on the medication...or potentiate them. Progesterone inhibits DHT, and breast tissue has androgens (and receptors) in them. Progesterone has a pathway to estradiol from androstenedione via aromatase.

I look forward to hearing from you.
