I thought I would drop a quick post for some of you ladies that are sitting on the sidelines about injecting twice a week, instead of your doctor's recommendation that you inject once every 7 or even 14 days.
My blood work for my Dr is typically drawn on a 7 day injection cycle, as per his instructions.
I do however inject normally every 3.5 days.
10mg at 7 days, or 5mg at 3.5 days.
My 7 day cycle ( 10mg ) has shown my Estrogen levels to be @ 300pmol/L ( The Dr is happy with this level )
Yesterday I had my blood drawn for a my family Dr, and asked him to include Estrogen and Testosterone, so he has a record of my transition too.
My 3.5 day cycle ( 5mg ) showed my Estrogen levels up to 1585pmol/L
My Testostetone for both is 0.4 nmol/L
To be honest, I was shocked to see the level that high, I was expecting maybe 500/600 pmol, but not almost 1600pmol.
Obviously, I do not need or take any Spiro or Finesteride.
I should add, I also eat a grapefruit every day.
