I added a blog to my site. Here's a picture of some smoke.
I thought it might be useful to write out my experiences with the four methods of taking estradiol I’ve tried.
- patches
- wouldn’t consistently stay on me
- could feel the effects wearing off 3-4 days after application
- insurance sucks
- sublingual pills
- worked alright, except:
- could feel them wearing off ~5-6 hours after taking a dose
- apparently hard to measure levels? had one test at ~200 mg/ml and another at 400+ mg/ml at same dosage
- swallowed pills
- could not get ideal levels with a reasonable number of pills, but:
- couldn’t actually feel them wearing off even at 12 hours between doses
- injections
- holy shit these are great
- was kinda nervous the first few times I injected myself, but I got used to it
- cannot feel it wearing off between doses
- levels are actually good??
- insurance sucks pt. 2
