Cypro related question, kinda weird

that much cypro is the recommended fosage for prostrate cancer patients & hate saying this, but its in all the "material" about it, for chemical castration of sex offenders.

i took it at that dosage & it wiped out testosterone. i mean if you can get a bit of a sex drive, this stuff, bam, gone which was great in my case. anything that was a hint at a sex drive for me was terror about testosterone & looking masculine.

. the problem with cypro is that your bod builds a tolerance for the stuff. & testosterone creeps back up at about 1.5 months & can cause liver damage long term.

UK MDs typically prescribe it for trans mtfs & have been for long time.

but think the MD knows what it does. prescribe it, it kilks testostrrone production in testicles. takes about a month or 2 months to clear blood levels, then add estrogen, because then the estrogen doesnt have to compete with testosterone. far better response from estrogen for secondary characteristics when it doesnt have to compete with testosterone.

then its just maintenance ( reduce dosage ) & checking for side effects.

not so great for sex drive but in my case it was relief because i associated sex drive with masculinization, & that was horrible panic anxiety for me.
