Good Morning,
Hard to believe it has been 6 months since starting Estradiol. I am now at 8mg per day (2mg 4 times a day. 4:30am, 10:00am, 3:30pm and 9:00pm). These are usually all taken buccally, but sometimes sublingually. Emotions are crazy usually towards the end of the month or the beginning of the month. Other times I feel pretty normal.
I am not taking any blockers still, but my "T" at my last testing (3/9) was still tanked down to 21 and my "E" was still at 132 in the morning right before my first dose, so the doctor did not see a need for it right now.
Supplements I am taking 4,000mg of MSM in the evening before bed along with a multi vit and a total of 5,000mg of D3 (which I have been on long before HRT due to low D levels. Also take a fish oil. Was taking a Magnesium, but currently out.
Any suggestions on ways I can improve my routine? Next bloodwork will be at my 9 month mark around July 19th.Thinking of asking to switch to shots or patches then... not sure if I can give myself a shot though.
Changes since my 3 month update:
Waist: 43" (Decrease 1")
Hips: 47 (Decrease .5")
Under Bust: 38.5 (38.5" Decrease 2.5")
Bust: 47 (Decrease 1.5", but more rounding/shape)
Over Bust: 45 (Decrease 1.5")
Right Thigh: 25.5 (Decrease 2")
Left Thigh: 25.5 (Decrease 2")
Weight 240lbs (down 8-9lbs)
