Perhaps you should be the one taking spironolactone. :wink: Medication and dosages do vary, but what you quote is about right. spironolactone is just used lessen the testosterone and help boost the effects of the estrogen.

I just asked. I may have had a little help, as he had received a letter from my psychologist, advising he prescribe. :freaked:

I paid £6.95 for one months supply (30 tabs) of Proscar on a NHS prescription, to treat hairloss.

Hi Jojje, Yes on estrofem 2mg twice daily. Also on spironolactone. I haven't heard of studies on women, but the wouldn't apply, as technically i'm still male and have a prostrate. Yes Tchehov, NHS are prescrbing for male pattern baldness. Propecia is licensed by NHS for hairloss, but Dutraside isn't. Proscar, maybe...

No Socks. F2M (Female to Male) are genic females who wish to be male = Transgendered men M2F (Male to Female) are genic males who wish to be female = Transgendered women................. I should know :wink: You must have quite a T level, as 200mg of spironolactone daily is the usual dosage...

Hi, I’ve come to this thread quite late, and if I’m honest, I haven’t read all the posts. Transvestites rarely take feminising medication, such as ‘spiro’, as they’re still guys who want to stay guys. M2F (male to female) transsexuals or transgendered may be prescribed ‘spiro’...

Not my own hair in that pic, taken last July, but it is very similar to that now. The changeover between hair piece and own hair has been pretty seamless. Friends never know if I wearing a wig now. As I say, i would just prefer my own hair thicker at the front. As I am on other medication too...

I must say, I had a reasonable amount of hair on my head before I started, but wanted to keep it, make it thicker and if possible gain some growth where I have a more male forehead. It has definately grown quicker and to me, each hair feels thicker and stronger. I haven't noticed any real...

£ 6.65 prescription charge. He only prescribed one box, to last a month (for me they'll last 2 months). When I see him next, he hinted that he may predcribe Dutraside. However, as far I know, it has not yet been granted an NHS license for hair loss prevention.

Hi UK78, I had been buying my own via the net, for some time. The 'experts' looking after me wrote to him advising he prescribe. I don't think he bothered to research the drug options, as he disbelieves they will have any effect. At present, as finastride has a maximum half life of 18 hrs...

Hi all, not sure if you have others on this forum like me. I'm a pre op transexual from the UK. My doctor has just prescribed me Finastride (Proscar 5mg) to prevent hair loss. He emphasised, was that I was NOT to split the tablets and I was to take all 5mg per day. I've been on 1mg-1.25mg...
