WELL thats what I did... 5mg weekly until my first blood test in two months... I asked them to run it through my insurance company at that dosage... Maybe they will pay for that... They were covering the pills so WTF
After I voiced numerous concerns about conflicting dosage info for EC he not surprisingly was "agreeable" with a lower starting dose
No lab work was done today...
WHAT A HEADACHE this has been, He says EV is for biweekly and EC is weekly according to the guidelines he has that are the most up to date... I have different opinion and Id rather do 10mg EV a week but Im going to have to put my pitch together... Ive been too busy to do it but I will....
According to this recent paper this is a good starting dose biweekly and 5mg weekly SHOULD be about the same as the 10mg biweekly MAX dosage .... ASIDE form the weekly frequency and longer lasting metabolism of 11 days and a weekly injection.... SHOULD BE PLENTY HIGH... I think the fact I sked for a reduction when the rubber hit the road might help my argument
Estradiol
cypionate
(Depo-estradiol)

This earlier paper from the same source has dosages the same for EV/EC, page 15... The one above is "revised"...

SOO thats the story and Im sticking to it... I hope I didnt shortchange myself because I will stay on this dose for the next two months then he ordered a lab test..... IF its not enough I can bitch about it EVERY week when I get my injection done
Its been about and hour since my shot and aside from the HEADACHE all this has given me Im feeling pretty good so far
