So what's a normal dose for Estradiol Valerate? I feel like they gave me a pretty high dose? Either way letsssss gooooooooooo! I have to wait until tomorrow to get it but I'm already so excited.

https://transfemscience.org/ This is a good source on how different kinds of estrogen work, and at what dose.

Yeah looking at that site, 10mg IM weekly is a pretty large dose.

ten mg/week? and here I thought I got a hefty dose at 8mg/week, on top of another 50mg spiro/day. I know a close friend of mine who has been on E for 5-6 years now and she's only on 5.3/week with no spiro

i used 10mg/wk for a few months and felt like the peaks/troughs were a bit too rough, but after talking with doctor I recently swapped to 5mg twice a week and have felt better, likely because Valerate has a somewhat short half-life. Really wish the guidelines online weren't just vaguely "Estradiol injected" and accounted for the compound type. I second checking out transfemscience.org as mentioned
