Awww thank you! Ive been using so much face shit, eye cream, toner, moisturizer, spf, etc etc. But 2 months on estrogen beat all my facial care hand down lmao. Just gonna keep using stuff, and maybe itll help. Maybe its a combination, who knows 😅

Yeahhhh caffeine addiction is a bitch 😭

I was working on it, then last month happened, and i got a bit self destructive

Working on it again though! Plus my drink of choice is redbull. Still not great, but alot better than monster ❤️

OMG! I was gonna make a joke about studying for the test, because that seemed like your kind of humor, but you beat me to it! I'm so grateful for your presence on Lemmy

Is it ok if I ask what a hormone test is and its significance?

brookedSmile@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 15d (5 replies)

Haha awww im getting popular, and great minds think alike 😂

Basically every once in a while especially so early on in hormone therapy ill be checking levels of testosterone and estrogen to make sure that estrogen is there in the right quantity, and testosterone stays locked in the basement where it fucking belongs lol

Just checking if hormone therapy is correct, or if ill need to increase doesages of medication. Because if T is high but not E i might as well not be doing anything. E high and T low means all is going the way i want it to. Both high is a problem and both low is a problem, either of those can cause pretty severe side effects.

Thanks for the kind words and the interest! I feel special lol ❤️

Edit: of course its ok if you ask! The worst anyone will say is they dont want to talk about it. But im a mostly open book, so ask away! ❤️
