Granted I haven't started my prescriptions yet. But I feel they are very low for what I was prescribed, and I know the VA and most health care will take a very slow and gradual approach to hrt. But at what point should I be worried that they are just chasing blood work numbers and giving my the basic one size fits all program that they are required to?
When I asked about the dose they said with the help of an anti androgen the dose of estrogen should be enough for feminizing effects and they're only shooting for 100-200 for estrogen levels and that they're worried about over dosing.
And I again I know they have to start somewhere and establish a baseline to see how I react once I start. But I already get the feeling that this VA clinic is and will only be doing the bare minimum and not treat me as an individual. But I guess we will see as time goes on once I actually start (which I am hoping to do so here in the very near future)
