I have somehow managed to avoid trans broken arm syndrome completely during my entire five year crusade to get my chronic pain treated. Good shit comfy-cool

Can cyproterone acetate contribute to fatigue or chronic pain though? No, right? That'd be fuckin silly.

Can cyproterone acetate contribute to fatigue

yes, absolutely.

[โ€“] ashinadash@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

:(

That is not the news I was looking for.

If that is the cause of all this I'm gonna be extremely displeased.

Cypro doses are often higher than they need to be. I went down from 10mg to 5mg after my first year of HRT, my T remained as low as before and my mood improved a lot.

Oh, I'm on 25mg currently. Huh...

[โ€“] AutomatedPossum@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's a really high CPA dose for HRT, you can probably adjust that downwards without any negative effects. I'd try halving your dose for a few weeks, see if anything changes, and when you're fine you might be able to go down even further.

I was thinkin I might, ty โœจ

That's really high. If you're taking estradiol as well, then 5mg/day is perfectly adequate, and 10mg/day as probably as high as you want to go.
