I was on abilify 5mg in 2018 for 2 months, I loved that med so much but I gained fat like 7-8kg in those 2 months even while going to gym. No other sides tho, it was prescribed for “unspecified personality disorder” ,another misdiagnosis. But since abilify helped i thought maybe therapist was right on that one. But it was helping bipolar symptoms without me knowing that abilify is bipolar med also.

Abilify is nice, it helps tremendously with mood but i have to take it like every other day at 1mg, any more and I'll start feeling sick and nasty and can't eat without feeling like im about to puke.

Too much CPA and not enough E. This is a regimen that will give you more sides than results.

Do you think it makes sense to continue taking these drugs then?

I will take these drugs as long as they work, especially CPA, it stopped hair loss, bica and finasteride, on the contrary, they increased hair loss.
if not for boobs, I would still take horse doses of E and FSUs for feminization.

Bicalutamide is basically castration I dont see possibility to lose hair on it + dutasteride. I had “dht itch” on finasteride,spironolactone,dutasteride,dutasteride + spironolactone, spironolactone+dutasteride+e2,cypro+dutasteride+e2…and only dutasteride+bicalutamide eliminated it and finally got some gains, it all comes down to androgen suppression atleast for maintance.
Also itch was so unbearable I washed my head 2x a day with nizoral and dermarolled until I was bleeding just to feel pain instead of f*****g itch.View attachment 175844

Im losing hair again. I‘m not sure if it’s because of me occasionally forgetting to take my medications, or that something is up. My regimen has been 25mg of bicalutamide, 0.5mg dutasteride, 5mg of oral minoxidil and 4mg of estradiol for the last 3 years or so. But my hair in the last few weeks seems to have been getting thinner after moving countries. I don’t have an increase of sebum production or other androgenic symptoms, but I’m worried. I’m thinking it’s because of the diet I have been on for the last few months, it is quite strict and low calorie. But I just don’t know… There is no way I’m losing hair on my regimen, I’m literally castrated and my balls are numb

depending on what you use to count the drops, what you're taking may be less than 1mg... And yes, it massively helped me (without AAs, just finasteride + oral min)

8 months HRT. By this time, I planned to recover 100%, but I did not recover even half. I tune in either for 2 years or forever. The growth line and temples are still thin, they cannot be given volume.
I assume that damage to the follicles is to some extent irreversible

And how are you with feminization and breasts? many trances change a little during this time. maybe injections are not working well. I have been taking cpa for 4 months and I don’t see 1 mg E of facial feminization, I have puffy nipples and the boobs themselves have grown a little, if you don’t look closely, then imperceptibly. I'm thinking of switching to 2 E, but I'm afraid of breast augmentation, as summer is coming soon. I'm from Ukraine, it's not customary for us to wear female breasts :)

My hair has been looking so thin. It's thin all over! At this point, I'm suspecting it's telogen effluvium. There is no way that there's androgenic activity when I'm on such a hardcore regimen, and I also started patches 2 months ago which means my androgenic activity should be lower. However, what are people's opinion on norethisterone acetate? My patches have that. Could that be causing a shed?

Okay, f*** me. "However, if you are taking norethisterone as part of hormone replacement therapy treatment hair loss may be a side effect. Women taking hormone replacement therapy (HRT) find that their hair thins during treatment. This is when the medication is taken for long periods of time and for completely different reasons for delaying periods."

How quickly I ripped that patch off. I am never using those again. I used them around 4 times so far, hopefully I didn't do irreversible damage.
