Hey, it's your girl Zoey again, here with an exciting update. I finally got prescribed estradiol and spironolactone. And took my first dose just a few minutes ago. I'm just feeling much more at ease, more comfortable now that this is finally happening, I'll keep you all posted. In a good mood today
Congratulations, I remember that even before the hormones could have any real affect that it felt good. Just knowing that you are moving down the right road helps.
congrats, you will love the changes now. i know i've been on them for 8 months now. but you wont love the pain up top or the tiredness youll feel, but great to hear your on them now
I did a lot of research a while back, and of course my doctor made sure to inform me of all the "less fun" parts. I'm sure I'll be sore, maybe tired, etc. But it's a small price to pay to live as who I really am. It's going to be a long process but its assuring to know that I've already started and it's just a matter of time, I'm excited for what the future holds.
Congratulations! That's always so exciting to hear when someone starts hormones. Happy to hear and wish you all the best.
Congratulations! Hormones are a wonderful thing, just a forewarning: In possibly 3-4 months you’ll start experiencing bloat, cramps, soreness in your chest. Yes, period symptoms. But they’re worth it.
sore is not the word for it. boobs hurt all the time now, and feels like someone is sticking a needle in them. very hot to the touch too now. tired most days, and muscle aches also. have fun though good luck
