    but 50mg is too much beyond a temp dose usually

    you mean on cypro, right? i'm on 300mg spiro...

    Even on 12.5mg my T levels are almost nothing, which fucks

    ok yeah i follow now

    If your levels come out well and the side effects of spiro (mostly just pee Idk) are fine by you, dw abt it tbh.

    yeah i'm planning to get bottom surgery (or at least I think I am? oh man that's a whole thing right now that I'm trying to process in small bursts) so I was just gonna go off anti-andros after that

      Yeah I mean cypro, which comes in 50mg tabs but should AT LEAST be divvied into 25mg halves, and I've seen as low as like 6mg. Spiro, anything from 150mg to like, 400mg? is normal.

      The bottom surgery conundrum bocchi-head-shake going off antiandros is pretty based, good for your kidneys and/or liver.

          kel-what But surely there's no pressure, and you can take your time deciding how you feel about it, right?

            yeah i decided on the 1-3 year option in a nearby city (that i used to live in lol, so at least i know it well) instead of flying across the country for the less than a year option, which came with a bunch of caveats like i have to get electrolysis done etc.

            ...this post is an opsec failure

              I couldn't dox you fwiw ✨ also caveats suck, death to the medicalisation of trans people under this system.

                Oh but I guess at least I dont have to pay anything! That's an improvement over years ago when I started transition

                Thats a relief that at least (although I'm not concerned about anyone posting in bear site in this regard, come visit, but it IS a public forum), but it will be nice to be nearby and not have to fly for the appointments and surgery, even if it does take longer and I have to get hair removal.
