thanks a lot for the advice! I really appreciate it.

And yes, I perfectly know this regimen isn't sustainable for the long term, I'm already working on my maintenance plan.

I will drop full hrt sometime around the 8 month mark, depending on results. The good thing is I have realistic expectations.. And considering I'm already having gyno surgery, something like 25mg bica + 2mg E2 could work for a few years as maintenance... until something like pyrilutamide comes along.
I did exactly that, at the 8 month mark I was happy with my hair quality and dropped the e2. that was around June. (when I had gyno sx).

by November, so 3 months, I noticed a decrease in quality, and thought: well, if I have gone from full on hrt to nothing it's obvious that the quality will revert somewhat.

my hair is now gone to the before hrt quality.

this sucks...

how to take tablets E? one at a time or all at once? once they wrote here that you should immediately take a high dose for 1 time that there was a surge of hormones and they will gradually decrease during the day. and if taken in the morning at lunchtime and in the evening, then e will be at a consistently low level.

My ears were blocked from minoxidil and my face was swollen.

Да цпа поднимает пролактин.Финастерид тоже но не намного чем цпа.Надо искать свою дозировку.
I dropped finasteride and cpa and take fewer E2 now.. PRL should normally now

Only E2 (not too much and not too few) 100 mg P4, 50mg P5. Minoxidil, tretinoid.. Vitamins ABCE, D3........ Will be the best.
My hair is growing faster and getting longer than ever before..

I will not take finasteride dutasteride cpa or bicalutamide anymore... And want to stay healthy.

I hate dutasteride too i wish i could drop it!! Did you start oral minoxidil?? For me oral minoxidil 22 mg was the best and strongest medication i have ever taken!! Did you have any shedding when you dropped dutasteride??I am thinking of dropping duta but i will never stop finasteride

Hm okay... I have been on oral minoxidil for 3 years now, estradiol/bicalutamide/dutasteride for 5 years. And... Ive been experiencing diffuse hair loss. Could it be a cyclic shed from the oral minoxidil?

Я тоже ненавижу дутастерид, я бы хотел его бросить!! Вы начали пероральный миноксидил?? Для меня пероральный миноксидил 22 мг был лучшим и самым сильным лекарством, которое я когда-либо принимал!! У вас был какой-нибудь сброс, когда вы бросили дутастерид??Я думаю о том, чтобы бросить дуту, но я никогда не остановлю финастерид
how do you take minoxidil 22 mg at a time or morning and evening and why do you take such a high dose, did smaller doses help you?

Thyroid gland? T3? Need some Jod?
Too much estradiol makes shedding and thin yellow hair too.
