Hey all, been on estrogen monotherapy for about two months. Man, I am just tired all the time. I feel like I have a low-level cold. Hard to get out of bed in the mornings. Even when I get in a good 8-9 hours sleep. Just have the blahs. Leg muscles are sore, like I ran all day... There are a lot of other potential factors. I drink way too much caffeine (though I have always done that and not always felt this tired). I tend to stay up late on nights when I have to get up early the next morning. Not enough exercise. Have some thyroid issues, though I thought I had those back within normal ranges. Possible low potassium levels. I realize no one here is a medical pro, per say, just curious if it is in others' experience to feel extreme fatigue for a season when starting HRT. This is one of the reasons I chose not to do spiro, is that I read it could cause lethargy and fatigue and make you pee all the time (I am having those issues too), but I am having a hard time with these effects anyways. I suspect my T was low before I even started HRT (just by observing how the, err, equipment, hasn't functioned so robustly over the past few years)... Maybe my body isn't sure who is in charge right now in terms of hormones since a new sheriff has arrived but only in minor quantities at this point... thanks again! EasyE -

I relate to a lot of this ... in my 50s now ... never really questioned my body but have always been fascinated with girl stuff (and loved that I had two daughters because it gave me an excuse to explore the feminine world more)... I like how you said this: "When I dared to take another peek inside, my egg cracked big time." Yep ... yep ... yep... -

Sorry to hear you lost both your parents young. My dad died from a heart attack when I was 10. My mom died a few years ago. I never came out, truly, to either of them, about my gender identity. On one hand it is freeing, not having to deal with “what would they think or feel about me now” but on the other hand, I wish they had truly known. -

This is fantastic, We're adding a Boxer to our family sometime this evening or tomorrow. His name is Parker. We'll be crate training him as well as introducing him to two cats that have never been around a dog. Pictures to follow later, Mindy🌈🐛🏳️⚧️🦋 -

I still don't understand how any queer people can vote for these people. I'll just leave it at that. -

Thanks Kathy! Some place where the peer pressure is to dress more feminine instead of less. Imagine that. I haven't left the house in fem clothing since an outing to a local LGBT club over 15 years ago. She's also pointed me to some support groups so that's next as well. And for those who noticed, yes, I committed a rather egregious grammatical error in my post, but I couldn't figure out how to edit it. That stuff bugs me to death. Geez Louise . -

Just more of the same. Unfortunately, I'm coming to expect it. -

Everybody doesn't feel this way. As a AMAB child (in the 50's) I don't think I questioned my body, but I was quite fascinated with girl stuff. When puberty hit I really wished I was a girl - but alas - I was stuck living as a guy. As an adult I had pretty bad homophobia, which was probably internalized transphobia, but I didn't really know what transgender was at the time. And by then I was locked into a marriage and family. I lived like that for most of my life, and convinced myself (but not my wife) that I was happy. When we were in our 60's, the marriage fell apart. And I believe a large part of that was me resisting my feminine self. When I no longer had to live up to being a man, I dared to take another peek inside, and my egg cracked big time. I still don't think I was "born in the wrong body." Maybe it just needed a little tweaking. I think our "gender" is an internal thing. I don't regret having lived so long trying to be a guy. But if I could have transitioned as a child it would have been awesome. -

@Adrianna DanielleSeeing two different therapist for separate issues really helped me deal with the each of them on different levels. I hope this works for you too. Hugs, Mindy🌈🐛🏳️⚧️🦋 -
