@Doephin Swapped from 20mg/week estradiol valerate IM to 10mg/week IM and 2mg/day sublingual. 200mg/night of rectal progesterone as well but that’s stayed constant.
My mood’s gotten a lot more stable than the IM alone, and I’ve had some pretty decent growth resumption upstairs. As well way over sensitive nipples as above, lawl.

@Doephin Yeah, the combo really seeks to have smoothed my mood swinginess out. Which is exactly what I was going for.
As for the progesterone - bioavailability when taken orally is really low. The same capsules can be inserted rectally for higher availability.

@faynefluff Huh I didn't know progesterone could be delivered that way. Interesting.
Also the combo of pills and IM is clever, I'll have to keep it in mind. Going weekly rather than 2/wk seems to have stablized mine fine but it's something to consider.
thanks!
