Day 5 on BC pill
Improvements
Vision is clear than ever
Joints feel so good . It's as if my knees have grown back .
Lethargy has gone down, but not vanished
Scalp is less dry
EQ is better but far from good.
Anxiety is down drastically.
On another note
I had a word with a gynecologist who consults post menopausal women about HRT. According to her , natural micronized estrogen and natural micronized progesterone looks good only on paper but women don't respond well to it . For some reason , even she recommends women to use synthetic estrogen n progestin along with micro doses of androgens. This is same practice followed by MAB trying to transition to women in countries where HRT is prohibited.
Personally have tried natural progesterone and it just makes me feel sedated and does nothing good for my symptoms. But the Levonorgestrel is doing a decent job in just 5 days . You can feel almost every textbook benefit of progesterone with levonorgestrel. My anxiety has almost vanished and sleep has improved . I also feel it has somehow made my hair less coarse .
Gonna stick with current protocol for another 7-10 days
