I use testosterone gel.I am female and have testo levels in "normal" range yet I greatly benefited from taking about 20mg a week of testosterone injections. however over time "side effects" too many red blood cells, decreased HDL.. I cut the dose way down.. now I take only about 4mg a week. it took a while but facial hair did develop. I wish there were a way to get the effects, I did like the feeling of being able to go to the gym , and being stronger, it gave a great sense of well being. I wish there was something to give positive benefits without the masculine effects.
That said, if I must become a man to be disease free, I sign the paper today…. I have already sign the paper to renounce to maternity because of my illness.
But for now, it seems that part of the testosterone is raising my estrogen, as my breast is getting much bigger...
