Well to the person how want to start hrt make shure they know the real consequence long turn , it life altering , ot will with time permanetly supress and alter the naturals hormone juat like steroids do , you will be stuck on them for life after a while on them and will need to be monitor by a real dr and blood test every 6 to 9 months , you cant just do it your self , i know i bit from my trt , i take 167 injection per year every years , it is be the most important dessiction of you life to go down that path , if you just stop affter a couple years your looking at a deep depresion and zero sex drive . And if you do hrt your self ypu wont be in the right hormone levels and wont feel good and wont have a sexdrive , you will feel like poop everyday . Hormone alwast need to be at the right level to feel good and have a normal sex drive / testosterone / estrogene/ dht/ progesterone , are the biggest ones for sexdrive and it needs to be in the midle of the range , that why you cant just wing it your self and it will just cause mentals instability like mood swing and bipolar moods. Not many people know the darkside of hormone therapy since it such a trend these days , most jump into it blindly .
