I'm fairly sure because of its long ass half life 12.5 every other day is more or less equivalent to 6.25 daily! I haven't noticed any mood or energy issues since switching:)
Okay cool, good news, perhaps I will try it sometime!
you may have seen this before but this is what informed my decision: https://transfemscience.org/articles/cpa-dosage/
Uh I think that entire range is irl crimes
Well that fuckin makes sense, and these studies are from the 1970s, ffs. Western medicine is a joke. What interested me here though
Seeing figures like this make me go Oh, well that's not like upwards of 90%! But as stated in the article E, even at like 4mg would offer a pretty good amount of suppression too though, these dorks are cypro only:
So CPA's not 100% effective on its own under 50mg, but more than like 10mg is overkill with estrogen:
I think I'll wait to do 6mg though, I dunno:
I don't see a lot of support for lower than 10mg, Idk. I do wish this shit came in 10 or 20mg tabs instead of fucking 50.
yeah it's a pain. I guess it can vary from person to person, my choice to go to 6 was also informed by anecdotal accounts on bsky of its effectiveness at that dose, and for me my T is perfectly acceptable at 6.25 along with my estrogel. I didn't really experience the increased energy and stuff that some folks report with the lower dose, but relying on less of a drug is just nice. also yeah it's off the wall that we used to get prescribed more than 50mg, that's gotta do some damage.
It worries me now that I took 50mg for like a few years, guess it could have been worse but dang... relying on less of a drug is cool, I'll see Idk. I'm not really smart enough for all this chemist shit sadly, much as I would adore becoming a trans Doctor Without Borders or smth.
what's nice is that i was able to stockpile it for a while and then one of my gfs was able to switch to it from spiro without needing a script, I get enough from the pharmacy for both of us hehe. and I wouldn't worry, 50mg may be too much for hrt but it shouldn't have done any harm from what I know if you were presumably on estrogen at the same time.
CPA stockpile...
Yeah I was on 4mg lupin-estradiol the whole time, so that's good...
Yeah my doctor told me I could take the whole 50mg pill every 4 days if I wanted to
