transHello, all. I've been self-medding (Yes, I know it's horrible, etc etc etc, I'm well aware of the issues, but I'm not here to get lectured on not going this route) for the past 2 1/2 months, only taking Estradiol twice daily. I started on 2mg after a week of feeling TERRIBLE on 4-6, but I've been taking 4mg a day now for the past two months.
I'm considering adding Spiro to my routine, but I'm wondering what would be a good dose to start off with. I really am concerned about losing my sex drive (and function), and so is my partner, and I've also always had low testosterone so I don't want to overdo it. I've heard everything from 25mg to 100mg a day, but some more opinions would be nice.
Also, I'm considering upping my Estradiol to 6mg a day, though I'm not 100% sure. Everywhere off-LJ I've read has said 6-8mg a day is normal, but when I posted this elsewhere I basically got told to stick with 4mg.
Thanks for any help!
