I have stubborn male hormones

Well, apparently, I have very stubborn testosterone.

I saw my endocrinologist today, and even though my estrogen levels are getting to where we want them to be, but the testosterone isn't going down like it should. So he's increased the dosage for progesterone to hopefully give my body the idea to stop with the male hormones.

I really hope it works ...

You can get whacked?

Of course, I already had three grown children, so as soon as they started me on spiro and Estrodial, I started plotting to get rid of my gonads. I had all but finalized a plan to self whack my own stones, when I found a retiring Urologist who would do it in his office for $1000.

So, perhaps you'd want to put some sperm in a sperm bank first. Unless you are willing to allow the rest of the male population to manfully make up for the loss of you. :)

Give it some thought, serious thought, and discuss it with your doctor. From what I've read, the difference can be remarkable.

I need more male hormones, and I need to get rid of the female hormones i have too much of :)

Actually, given painful cysts (already checked and ruled out cancer) in my testes, I might end up with "snip,snip" and even lower hormone levels. Then again, I like my sensitive female side, so ....
