I am currently using 200MG of spironolactone as an anti-androgen and it has been making me lightheaded more often than usual and it is an uncomfortable feeling. I am wondering about delving into other anti-androgens but I’m not sure on which one to use and particular dosing. So far, the alternative anti-androgens are cyproterone acetate and bicalutamide. I am reaching closer and closer to bicalutamide but I am unknowledgable on it, and unfortunately I haven’t seen much people use it.
When it comes to CPA, I am thinking about long-term use because I have seen with multiple stories that their T levels remained low even when using the medication less often. T levels are reduced with low-doses. But, can CPA actually be used long-term if used sparingly? (Whilst on Estradiol)
With bicalutamide, I am not sure about its long-term use too. Will it be safe enough to be used long term? And could bicalutamide have a higher chance of leading to reflex hyperandrogenicity? And what dose will be best?
My current regimen is: spironolactone, estradiol and dutasteride.
