Hi, sorry if this is the wrong section.
I've turned 18 this year and I might be starting HRT in a couple years, depending on my next doctor appointment (which is in 7 weeks). I was wondering if taking Pueraria Mirifica would have any affect on HRT when I start it though. Would it help me have a more feminine body or would it make progress more difficult? I find it very difficult to cope atm and I feel like this might be a way for me to deal with the dysphoria before I can actually start transitioning. Even if it only gives me puffier nipples, it would certainly boost my happiness somewhat.
I was also wondering if in addition to the PM I should take anti-androgens like saw palmetto for some time first to make the results better.
I'd appreciate any advice ^-^
Edit:
Also if anyone has any recommendations for specific products, that'd be much appreciated.

as long as you don`t try taking them at the same time as your HRT you`ll be fine!
I was on SP and PM as well as BO a good 3 months before I started HRT others here have been on even longer before going the HRT route.
I can`t give any product names as it was nearly 2 years ago and I forgot! LOL, I do remember using Swansons BO though.
Also before you take Anything! have you considered saving sperm first? your count and viability will go down when you start taking these things!
I wish I was 18 again! LOL xx

Hi Lazy!
for PM use
http://www.ainterolherbs.com/ainterolspu...-p-48.html
They are cheapest in volume.
Start off with red reishi and White peony for your AA's
I just switched from red reishi to Evening primrose.. will let you know how that works.. so far I like it.
Start off with 1000mg of PM or less to see how your body adjusts to it.
Like Katie said... think about freezing your stuff.

Hi, thanks for your reply!
Honestly, I don't want to freeze my sperm. Being a biological father would just be painful and weird to me. Becoming impotent is pretty high on my list of things that I want HRT to do to me.

Heyo, thanks for your recommendation, the PM does seem like good value for money - I just need to save up a lil bit more and I'll be able to safely afford it.
I'm assuming I just consume the white peony as a tea, right?
https://www.amazon.com/Davidsons-Tea-Whi...ARJFG?th=1 <- is this the right kind of stuff? Also, how much should I be taking for the best effects?
The red reishi looks like it'll be easy to find, there's this stuff ->

I'm guessing this is probably what you're talking about, and I might not even have to get it online as I believe they sell it at Holland & Barrett's, although looking online it looks like they sell a different dosage.

Also, when you said "red reishi AND white peony", did you mean that I should take both or that I should choose one?
Thanks again for your help

White peony we use is a root of chinese flower, it's got nothing to do with tea. I get mine from Baldwin's, a London based company. They sell both sliced dried root and alcoholic tincture.
Reishi is easy enough to find, but cheap stuff probably won't get you very far.
They do different things and it's a good idea to try both.
