      I setup an account with Anne on the 29th April, I never considered the NHS because of wait times and their contract with Palantir.

      Overall though this has been a year in the making, new college, new course, new job, new name. I am a new person compared to me a year ago.

    Congrats!

    obvs talk to a doctor about it, but in my experoence cypro was really bad for me, and i was only taking a quater pill every 3 days (it has a 70+ hour half life)

    a friend who was taking a whole pill every day ended up damaging their liver

    i know wanting to nuke your T is a pretty powerful urge, it makes me feel so icky, but a little bit of T is really important and ultimately good for you. A lot of older women end up taking T to boost their levels.

    I stoppped taking it as it tanked my mental health

    anyway, congrats again, make sure you keep getting your hormone levels checked with blood tests x

      It’s my understanding than in up to date recommendations, cypro is one of your last alternatives and with a preemptive and later control MRIs to check for brain tumors (meningioma) and similar issues. That’s just the scariest but other side effects aren’t happy either as you know.

      Just depends on the suppliers used and appropriate jurisdictions.

      This was dispensed to me by a high-street pharmacy.
