Anyone on hormones?

[JohnnyA]

What's it like after the first pill? (physically I'm sure you wouldn't notice anything, but mentally your mind must be going a mile a minute).

How do you feel after a few weeks? Do you emotionally start to feel different? I'm trying to picture what it would feel like when, during a MtF transition, the pills start to work. It would be amazing to watch your body change. And very interesting to see how female hormones would effect your mind and emotions.

Ah to have lived another life.

I hope to start in a few weeks, but I have been taking soy isoflavones in the mean time. They create a similar but lesser effect of estrogen.

So far the only thing I've noticed is I've regained my ability to cry. It's nice, but it doesn't give all the emotional effects I want from estrogen. Oddly enough, I have the urge to cry right before orgasm.

It takes about 3 years to get the full effects of taking hormones.

One pill doesn't do much, unless it's as you described, more of a head rush.

What you're taking and how much is a major factor... and whether you're doing orals or injectibles.

Before i stopped taking hormones i was on a regimen of 5mg premarin and androcur... not sure what dosage, i took the pills and broke them up into little pieces - and they were still quite potent.

When you take an anti-testosterone like androcur, it has a powerful affect on your body, emotions, pscyhe, and sex drive.

It was a strange irony to me, that men would come on to me sexually all the time when i was on androcur, and i had no sex drive at all. Nor did they have a clue that such an approach had no chance of winning.

Is there a big black market of hormone pills? I'm not looking in the least, just wondering if such a thing exists.

I've heard horror stories about alleyway(not literally) TG operations, but never heard of the pill trade.

1gram/week of testosterone cypionate
1.25mg EOD Letrozol (aromatase inhibitor- stops Estrogen)
0.5mg EOD Finasteride (reduces DHT)

LoboBoy: that comment reminds me of a poster I saw in Denmark some years ago. Where the title was as follows "If You use hormones, there is an iron you can´t lift".

Meaning you wouldn´t couldn´t get your penis up, and running. And I am against all kind of hormones , if it hasn´t any kind of real reason like MtF and FtM kinds of stuff, and other legimate stuf. Doping = not instead of hot in my mind

But hey , every ones taste is dífferent.

Muscles are hot, if they are real, and not hormone induced, and here am I talking doping.

Peace

There's also a black market for hormone injections and it's EXTREMELY dangerous. There's a huge risk for HIV.

lol...I know what you're saying but trust me it's real. Saying it's not real because extra androgens have sped up my protein synthesis is like saying the physical effects with transgender people are not real because thy have manipulated their hormonal profile.

Hormones are chemicals...they are absolutes and as such, moral judgements made on their use has no bearing on whether the effects are "real" or not.

What's wrong with a guy supplementing his androgen levels to bring about a more "masculine" effect? I have as much right as anyone to emphasise the masculine characteristics of my body.

Just wait til we all hit 50 or so and the Dr suggests hormone replacement therapy for us men. Guess what he’ll give you? Testosterone. The granddaddy of all steroids. It’s funny how they say it’s poison when you’re an athlete and lifesaving when you’re older.

OK…no more AAS rants from me. I promise.
