driving myself insane
i’ve made a few posts on here and i feel like i’m never wording right what i’m trying to get at. I have been on Een 4-5mg weekly for a few months now. My levels are in female ranges, 640pmol/L estrogen, 1.53nmol/L testosterone. Good levels on just estrogen monotherapy in my opinion. When i was a teen, my hairline receded and had majorly thin hair, fast forward to August 2025 i had a hair transplant and fast forward to today my hair is growing but it’s still very very fine. I’m wondering if I still have higher DHT levels, as my body hair grows back thick and fast, i still have a sight male odour. I started Cyp to try help this, depression hit me like a rock instantly. I stopped, opted for Dutasteride instead. It’s been 11 days since i stopped Cyp, and i’ve been on dutasteride 0.5mg daily about a week. Should’ve probably waited to start dutasteride as it’s probably all the hormonal imbalances still making me feel depressed. However, after spending the entire weekend researching Dutasteride and seeing PFS, potential long term issues, depression symptoms. I’m at a loss. Idk whether to continue and hope my mood improves, or to stop it and see if it’s causing me to feel low, or if it’s just my body recovering still from the Cyp. Ive always had issues with my hair being super fine, i haven’t noticed any other loss since my transplant, its just so unbelievably thin in certain areas against others and i wanted to maximise my hair potential, reason for starting dutasteride. I just can’t seem to find the right cocktail without reading all the scary stuff about medications online and i just need some clear advice. I know i can’t get a correct answer, as everyone is different and i’ll have to test and see what works for me, but i’m spiralling into this medication wormhole and idk what to make my next steps be. The other part of my brain is do i even need a DHT blocker with my T being that low? HELP.
