It was a very pleasant experience at the Endocrinologist appointment this morning. I have officially started HRT today 1mg Estradiol patch and 100mg Spironolactone. She did say my estrogen levels from the PM and other supplements were too high and my Testosterone was also too high. So now we can get them under control properly and get me where I need to be. Plus as a bonus I got my new tennies and socks from Amazon!
Thank you Jannet, MeganJ, Aria, Bobbi, Jessica, Laura, Bambi and anyone else I didn't mention for all your kind words of encouragement and advise along the way. I'm new to myself so I flooded ya'll with questions. Ya'll graciously answered and now the rest of my life begins!

Question, is 0.1mg Estradiol patch a typical dose? I change it twice a week. Also got me on 50mg spiro 2xday for 4 weeks and then up it to 100mg twice a day.
She said my estrogen was already too high from all supplements even though i was off for a full month they dropped feom 188 to 134.
Day two so far it seems to be okay!

Just a bit north of you dear, Chicagoland!
That's where my wife was from before she moved to TX. Grew up in Wheeling. I'm currently looking for some online support groups that have more daily interactions. If you know of any please share!

I'm about 25 miles southwest of Wheeling in Naperville. I don't know of any other support groups online, my therapist is supposed to get me a list of support groups local to me. Please post links if you find anything regarding online support groups- please share!
