In Begining Stage Of Hrt Question ?

[Guest Jinny M]

Hi Everyone.

Sorry if this is too personal a question to post and it offends anyone. Mods please feel free to reword if it's not appropriatly worded

I'm a concerned and a little worried !

I have a question pertaining to testicular pain. I'm only on day 6 of my HRT ,only taking spiro and estrodoil (Starting dosage) .

Yesterday on day 5 , I started to feel some discomfort and pain and it was only in one . Today it's in both. It's tollerable , but it's constant.

Is this a normal part of HRT and the meds doing thier job ? or should I be very worried right now and calling the Doctor ?

Did anyone else experience this also ?

Thanks

Jinny

I could be wrong, but I don't think that's a usual side-effect of HRT... you should probably go and see a doctor about that ASAP. I don't mean to panic you, but I think it's probably best to find out what's going on there. Hope you get on OK

Jinny.......

I've been a Mod here for more than two years and I really haven't heard of this being a side effect of HRT......

Call you doctor....ok?

Same advice from me, Jinny. That isn't a usual side effect. Please get it checked out.

I've had that pain off and on for the past 6 months. It's a dull pain nothing amazingly sharp. I think extreme expansion or contraction of body parts will do that and our bodies all react differently and at different speeds.

But as always, if you have concerns it's best to just call your doctor. They'll know your unique chemistry and pre-HRT blood levels, etc.

Thank You ,, it's tollerable , but there.. my wife said maybe I pulled it, I did lift a vehicle floor jack in and out of my truck yesterday. I've lifted that many other times before and no problems . if it's any worse tommorow , I'll call and see if I can be fit in for an appointment. I'm urunating fine and regularly .

I did also start taking a Suppliment yesterday also, Clinicure Botanical Thinning Hair Solutions , energizing nutri-complex , to try to help with my thinning hair. I got it from a health food store. I'll look that up and see if theres any warnings on it , I should have actually done that befoe I bought it.

I'm not taking suppliment tommorrow , see if that helps also.

Thank You.

Also make sure you are getting enough water. That is always my bane.

I had that happen to me - it passed in a couple of days. I was cranky as hell becuase my boobs were hurting too. I don't know if it is typical, but for me it was very temporary.

Thanks Everyone.

I was worried about it , it was a dull lingering pain. I woke up this morning and it was still there but alot less... Now early in the afternoon , it's even less.

I've been drinking a gallon of water a day,, I've been urinating alot , since I started to take the spiro.

I did not take the supplament for thining hair today , to see if that might have been it.

My wife said it maybe the Estradoil and spiro , working on riding my body of T and working on shrinking the Testies.

It seems to be getting better , as long as it does and doesn't go back you yesterday . I wont call the Doctor , if it does start to go the other way again , I will call right away.

Hello Again, I just wanted to let everyone know I decided to be on the safe side and help put my mind at ease. I called the Doctor who prescribed my HRT meds, The receptionist tranfered me to her voice mail , told me to leave her a message that she checks them when she gets a chance during the day , if not it'll be at the end of the day or tommorow sometime she'll call me back .

I left a detailed message of whats been going on and I'm waiting for her call, better to be safe than Sorry.

better to be safe than Sorry.

Yes it is, Jinny. I'm happy you called him. I hope all is well.

Hello Again ,

Today I spoke with the Doctor , she said , that my dull pain and discomfort , Which was alot better today , is not a side effect from the HRT meds.. She said it most likely a pull from lifting that vehicle floor jack with the wrong body posture. She said if it continueing still on Friday morning, I have to go in for lab and Urine tests .

Tonight , I sit here with no discomfort or pain... I hope it stays that way tommorow when I wake up .

Thanks everyone for your input and concern.

Hmmm, I get this pain every once and a while. It's like the hiccups. I notice when it starts but can't really say how long it lasts or when it stops. A few minutes?

I never questioned it before; it just makes sense to me. They're obviously going through changes. Maybe I should mention it to my doctor...

[Guest Jinny M]

The pain is completely gone now... I'll talk more about it with my Doctor at my next visit in April.

At 1st I wondered the same Jo-I-Dunno , figured it was just the HRT meds doing thier job and doing some shrinking , just didn't expect it so soon.. but I talked to my Doctor and she said that kind of pain in that area , wasn't a side effect of HRT, sounded more like a pull or strain.

I figure theres going to be growing or should I say re-adjustment pains through out my body's transformation from the HRT. I figured it was just one of them.

Thankfully no more pain and I'm feeling back to normal again ...
