        my partner and i are both on prog but due to other personal stuff haven’t been able to deal with the libido, which might be worse than if only one of us was on it

        Yeah, the timing seems to be key with this stuff. Some say you should wait until your breasts have completed Tanner stage 3, i played it extra safe and waited after i was on HRT for a whole year and had my estradiole and CPA dosages dialed in perfectly.

      Progesterone was so amazing for me. Also, I regained my ability to cry! I know some girls don’t like how emotional they can get on prog, but by SNRIs made me too emotionally dead to really feel anything. Now I cry when reading, listening to music, and (unfortunately) at work when I get pissed off. I’m not unhappy about it and I wear waterproof makeup anyway so it’s fiiiiine
