aidenonymousI'm sort of rebooting updates since upping my dose from 1.25 g AndroGel 1% daily to 1.25 g AndroGel 1.62% daily. I should have made one last week but was preparing to move and got sidetracked. Without further ado:
I've been on the higher does of T for three weeks now and haven't noticed much of anything, except that I had another period and am not super happy about it. I really hope this is the last one! I didn't get emotional PMS this time, for which I am immensely grateful. However, my chesticles got so swollen I couldn't bind for five days straight, and I just gave up on passing because of it.
Other than that, I've been more prone to dehydration since upping my dose. I think my liver and kidneys are on overdrive from all the steroids I'm on -- I was prescribed a four-times-daily albuterol inhaler for my worsening asthma about two months ago, on top of the increased dose of T -- and am struggling to drink enough water.
