I’ve been on this regime for 2 months:

- 2mg Estrogel applied twice a day on the scrotum

- 12.5mg Cypro taken daily

Ive not noticed much so far apart from some budding and a total loss of sex drive. Does that mean I’m likely at good levels (don’t have easy access to bloods) and would I be safe reducing to 6.5mg Cypro and then stopping in a few months when my current supply runs out and go gel only?

I understand quite a few people get sufficient suppression from 2-3mg gel?

I want to adjust my dose to what should be optimal and let it settle before forking out £100 for labs.

Also I’m considering switching to injections in around 6 weeks, what do they feel like and are they better or just cheaper? I’ve heard some people get period symptoms from it - anyway to stop that or minimise it?
