Yea, my weight is almost same, but my body fat went from about 10% (veins on abs) to about 20% and my lean muscle mass decreased. We are taking anti-androgens... so what do we expect? :/

Do you still loose ground on Bicalutamide? I mean hair loss
No hairloss man!Horrible side effects bro... cruel. FML

Nothing works on me, CPA, E2, Dutasteride, Finasteride, Oral minoxidil, Topical minoxidil, RU. Now im trying Bicalutamide but Im pretty sure it wont work.

Now when Im taking AA im thinning everywhere... armpits, pubic hairs, facial hairs thinned by about 60%, head hairs

I'm almost 3 weeks on 150mg bicalitamide. the nipples are swelling despite having been operated on for gynecomastia a year ago. almost absent sperm. but excellent sexual function. I don't give a damn about these side effects just to get results on the hair. the only one that terrifies me and I have already experienced is the decrease in the size of the penis, but without estradiol it will not happen.

inform us if despite the gyno surgery tits getting bigger!! I don't get it why this is happening :( seems like some degree of gyno is inevitable even if you have glands removed!

it happens because the entire gland has not been removed ... albeit to a lesser extent but it happens, you can be sure. it depends on the drug as regards .. after the operation I tried both spironolactone 200mg and cyproterone 25mg both in mono therapy and neither of them caused me gynecomastia. bicalutamide on mono therapy causes me gynecomastia

Can not agree with you... I shed muscles and gain fat a lot with 3 months 12.5mg CPA + 1mg E2, then over 1 month 100mg Bicalutamide mono...

So that’s what over 4 months AA/E2 can do to your body composition...

Last half year was VERY stressful for me too. Im not going to the gym anymore so I think it had a lot of impact too...
This replicates my experience. I had relief and low body fat before HRT, but after about 5 months I started to gain fat mass.
On bicalutamide without estradiol, I was embossed. Since Bicalutamide does not lower T, it did not change my body composition.

Decreased testosterone reduces your BMR, slows down your metabolism, and causes you to store fat - this is the reason why obesity is more common in older men, and also the reason why eunuchs had a higher percentage of body fat. It is also the reason why women have a higher percentage of body fat than men, this is natural.
This effect will not occur if you use Bicalutamide without E or a small amount of E that will not reduce your T to female levels, thus maintaining the anabolic and fat burning effect of testosterone. Anabolic steroids work on the same principle, helping to reduce fat mass.

In fact, iron training has little effect on fat loss because it doesn't burn as many calories as people think. An hour-long workout at the gym burns about 200 calories depending on your weight, which is very little. Much more depends on the calorie content of your diet.
Previously, I worked out with iron 4 times a week. Along with this, I kept a small calorie deficit, and very quickly reduced the percentage of fat. But in retrospect, I understand that the key to losing weight was a calorie deficit through food, not exercise.

I have been using cyproterone for almost a year .. without E2. but with fine thickening and maintenance .. decreasing .. at some point the hair started to lose quality and thickness I suppose due to the lack of estradiol in the body .. however I felt really bad .. weak depressed and my testicles shrunk

I changed my regimen, I have been taking 100 spironolactone in the morning and 25 cpa in the evening for almost a month, I noticed that the vellus hair on the temples began to grow a little, now I can pinch them with my fingers, I think that spironolactone helps. but these hairs are vellus-colored, and for some who post photos here, they immediately grow black. tell hildren hairs will darken? and the loss has decreased even more than on the CPA and E, I wash my hair every 3 days and 3-5 hairs remain on my hands. My hair is about 15-20 cm long, so it is clearly visible.

diet is very important. and lifting weights aren't going to make you drop a lot of fat. but if you do fairly intense repeated interval sprints at about 75% you will drop weight fast, especially in combination with diet.

Il sollevamento pesi non significa perdere grasso o bruciare calorie, ma aumentare i muscoli, poiché i muscoli bruciano grassi, ovvero calorie, quindi puoi avere un tasso metabolico di base più elevato. Questo è un malinteso comune
man can we talk in private? I would like to ask you a few things .. thanks

do you have a discord invitation for me bro
Cyproterone is the culprit. I lost too much muscle on that regimen it was insane. On bica 75mg + 1-2mg e2 you are effectively having low-normal t levels. Cypro destroys t with e2 to the ground.
Not to mention I was also on seroquel and zoloft which is notorious for gaining weight. Its basically calories in calories out in the end
