Didn’t have a chance to write up a detailed post, either on a fruit or the topic I was originally thinking about. I think they’re neat and they taste good.

Hello gamers, I got my blood work back and don’t really know what to make of it
Is this normal for 2.5 months on HRT? I was on 4mg estradiol a day for the first month and a half and then bumped up to 6mg, plus 100mg Spiro a day (unchanged throughout). I definitely missed doses here and there, but maybe only a handful throughout.
E doesnt come in ng/dL, are you sure you are reading the levels correctly? It should be pg/mL or pmol/L.
Oh yup I misread it’s pg/mL
okiii well general recommended levels are E2: 100-200 pg/mL (367-734 pmol/L) and T: < 50 ng/dL (1.7 nmol/L) so u pawbably neeeddd a bit higher dose. how are u taking the E?
Oral tablet/pill. I’m interested in injections because I hear people often respond to that better and I already do weekly injections w/ semaglutide so what’s another shot?
Do you just swallow the pill? putting it under the tongue or letting it dissolve in your cheek gets more of it straight to the bloodstream.
Also with the gel just put it right on the girldick, it’s about three times as effective than anywhere else.
i have no tricks for injections
Isn’t my mouth gonna be all bitter if I just keep it in there instead of swallowing?
Shot tricks:
For DIY you can often use 31g insulin needles because the liquid is thinner than the perscribed stuff and subq has comprable uptake rates to IM (to my knowledge at least)
You can use use a vial for more than just a month, as long as its kept steril and the stopper is fine.
If you kinda squeeze a squigly with your skin you can trap the estradiol in there after taking the needle out, if youre having issues with leakage.
Thats all i got, and it aint medical advice lol
now this is
posting
very nice
subq and im have identical levels with all esters except EUn
This has been my experience as well, except i havent tried eun
Not really surprising. There’s a lot of variation from person to person it seems, so starting doses often are not enough, but serve to get an idea of what is needed.
