Hello Everyone:

 

Wanted to share that I got my labs back quick and what my numbers are.  I am so happy that my E went from 12 up to 30 and my T went from 187 down to 29.  So looks like everything is working grate.  I am just so happy and I cannot wait till the 19th to go over everything with my doctor.

 

Thanks

Hey all

 

So the patches are working.  I have noticed more that I am having to wear my sports bra a lot more cause it feels very comfortable.  I have just notice that my nipples when rubbing against my shirt hurts so need my sports bra and it feels a lot better.

 

Thank You

You'll certainly need to protect that area for a while!  Things will calm down eventually.

Oh yes, the constantly happy nipples and soon to arrive ouchies! I got my results back a week and a half ago and it was a little shocking because the T was so low I couldn’t believe it, I don’t think they could measure it right because it didn’t have a number it had a note that said less than three which is far below arrange for a female, I have to go see my endocrinologist on Tuesday so I’m hoping to get things back in range but I don’t think the low T is really an issue as long as I can get my E in the right range, it was rolling up around 80 E on the last test but it will be up to my Endocrinologist to see if she wants to push it any higher, I think I’ve read that some people prefer higher but I haven’t done much research so I have no idea what these numbers mean myself I just trust my Endo to take care of it for me... I have no idea why but it seems that people want to poke you in just the wrong place when you have the ouchies, Nobody ever seemed to bother me until I had them and then during that span of time I was either bumped nudged poked and even once squeezed by a very good friend who had no idea that it nearly dropped me on the floor!  It almost made me spit out my sushi!

I agree with Jae, the ouchies and itchies are so much fun! I find myself reaching for something and hitting them myself :?! I just checked my E and T levels from my last lab, my estrogen was 115, yea!, but my t level was 433, yuk! Hang on for the ride.

Hey all

 

Thanks for all the good help.  I know for my T, one good thing I have going for me as my doctor had said is that since I am a Cancer survivor from Testicular cancer and already missing one testical that my T level was already very low.  So it just needed to drop even more and the big thing was to bring up my E.

 

Thank you all

Ah yes... I can sympathize! I damaged my little guys so bad in a motorcycle wreck that one is done for and needs to come out no matter what! The remaining little guy is barely hanging on, so I am scheduling an orchi to get both of those trouble makers kicked out! I have such low T at this point I don't think either one of them is making anything at all... Oh well, don't care, bye bye little guys, I won't miss you!

Squishy hugs,

Jae

Hey all:

 

So I was standing in front of my closet mirror today and notice why my nipples have been itching a lot and why I have been noticing why I need to wear my sports bra a lot more for comfort.  So my nipples have been looking like that have been sticking straight out and when I touch them, they are sensitive.  Then it looks like I have a small A cup definition right now.

 

The fun part is that I have been weighing myself twice a day and in the early mornings, I have been averaging 205 and then late afternoons / early evenings I have been 211

 

So I have been losing weight

 

Thank you all

You sound like you are doing fine there, the shape of your breasts does generally change even before you actually put on more size onto your male or "moob" structure which is more deltoid, whereas female is more oval in shape.  The nippy itching is a positive sign, and the sticking out more is what will lead to some wild adventures. <evil grin>

Oh yeah, itchy and sensitive nipples along with the emotions make for a wild ride. byw got a kick about Vicky's "evil grin :D

Hello All

 

So since my doctor has increased my patches from 1 to 2 patches a day of Estrodial.  I have been noticing a lot more that my breast around my nipples have been becoming very sensitive.  I need to wear my sports bra that makes me feel comfortable and no irritation now.  There is no size difference, but more like a 90% irritation.

 

Thanks

As time goes on you will be amazed at the amount of time your breasts call out "I'm Here....Pay Attention".  It is a lovely and almost constant reminder of the journey you are on. Enjoy it as it is less demanding as time passes.

 

Hugs,

You may not notice a size difference as your breast grow to be fuller rather than bigger (outward).

Hello All:

 

So I have been on the 2x patches of Estrodial according to doctors instructions for a week now and have not seen any change.  My doctor just wanted to speed it up a little which is why for the 2 patches.  She wants me to give her a call in 3 weeks to let her know of how it is going.

 

lots of love

That's probably about right.  My number had been consistent for quite some time so my doctor up'ed the dosage with new patches.  It took about two weeks before I started to get tenderness indicating something was happening!  It may start slow like that and pick up steam soon afterwards.  Remember that it's having the hormone consistently in your system that makes the difference.  

 

Cheers!

Hello Jani:

 

I know that I am feeling the tenderness around the nipple area and when I sleep on my stomach, I have to wear a sports bra so it will not hurt.  I have noticed when wearing a shirt, I need to wear my sports bra due to the irritation.  Wearing a sports bra is so comfortable to me.

 

Thank You

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I was going to call it Numbness, then I realised well.. it isn't. basically, yeah, it isn't.   this only happens to me sometimes. I'll be lying down and my legs will.. well, I guess lock?   If I straighten them out, they will unlock- when I roll over again, they will lock again. this lasts for around 10/ 15 minutes I guess   it's not pins and needles either

    • atlantis63
      so, a close friend wants to cook for me   the issue is, she is a vegitarian and won't handle meat- I, on the other hand, won't handle vegetables- hate the things   every time she goes out to the shop, she comes back with something.. a cake, a fruit smoothie, a coffee, I won't eat any of it. please help me think of something that she could make for me that I'll actually eat   disclaimer: you are talking to the most pickiest eater in the world. good luck

      I think there is some truth in this.  They intend to implement Project 2025, whether or not he spends his energies persecuting the Democrats who have been persecuting him (in his view, a debatable point) and does nothing else.   I have seen numerous accusations that the document is about "Trumpism", whatever that is, and is merely a vehicle for him to become dictator.  From what I have read so far, that is the same sort of truth as the Steele Dossier, denying the validity of a certain laptop, Schiff's non-existence evidence of collaboration and a host of other things, many directly from Biden, that are simply not true.   I will continue reading it.

      Who, precisely, are "they"?

      Wife of mine pointed out that not getting a haircut for a month looks hideous - weird bald patches.  So back to super- short buzz cut.  This morning I braced, looking in the mirror.  I look like a woman trying to pass as a a guy, maybe  a small-breasted woman with enough T treatment to grow a mustache.    I would not believe me if I read what I write about me.  This is nuts.   White t-shirt: that they sell in the back of WM so you can tie-dye them or otherwise decorate them. They are thick and long lasting and slightly fitted, so that they could be a man's.  I like them.   Jeans, flip flops.   I will no longer point out these are women's.  What else would I wear?

      That is all that is necessary. I did the same thing. I must have gotten something wrong.

      Quite right mate! I have been letting my hair grow out again (I cut it all off when I was 18).    I'll never look this good:    But I'll aspire to look my best! ☺️
