The amount of hormones needed for a male to female sex change varies from person to person and depends on many factors, including genetics and age. A healthcare provider specializing in transgender care can guide you through the process.
The goal of hormone therapy is to reduce testosterone levels to a normal female range (30–100 ng/dl) while avoiding supra-physiological levels of estradiol (<200 pg/ml). A common hormone regimen for transgender women includes:
Estrogen
Estradiol is the preferred estrogen because it most closely resembles the hormone produced by the ovaries. Doses can range from 2–6 mg/day orally, or 5–20 mg of estradiol valerate intramuscularly every two weeks.
Anti-androgens
These suppress the production of androgens, reducing masculine characteristics. Common anti-androgens include cyproterone and spironolactone.
Progesterone
Some clinicians may add progesterone to the regimen, but there are no well-designed studies on its use in transgender women. Potential adverse effects include depression, weight gain, and an increase in lipids.
The speed and extent of hormonal changes vary from person to person. Some body features may change almost immediately, while others may take years to develop.





How much estrogen is needed to transition?
Estrogen. Estradiol is preferred, as it most closely resembles the hormone produced by the ovaries. It is prescribed in a similar way to hormone replacement therapy for postmenopausal women, but with slightly higher doses. The dose of estradiol valerate tablets starts at 2–4 mg daily, increasing up to 8 mg.

The cost of estrogen varies widely depending on the type of estrogen, the delivery system, and whether you have insurance. Here are some examples of estrogen costs:
Generic estradiol tablets: The most affordable type of estrogen, costing around $20 or less per month with a GoodRx coupon
Vaginal ring: A 90-day vaginal ring can cost more than $800
Estrogen pills: Can cost $45–$90 every 90 days
Estrogen patches: Can cost $175–$446 every 90 days
Estradiol injections: Can cost $214–$372 every 90 days
Pellet therapy: Costs between $1,050–$1,400 for women and $1,400–$2,100 for men
Creams, gels, and patches: Cost around $60–$360 for an insured person and $120–$1,020 for those who are uninsured
Most insurance plans cover some form of estradiol, but you may still have high out-of-pocket costs. You can check online for manufacturer savings, such as patient assistance programs and copay discount cards. You can also talk to your healthcare provider about less costly alternatives and medication samples.

Captain from the Viking got it. I’m kicking my leg, Get OUT!!


Is hormone blood test expensive?
The least expensive kits cost as little as $45, while the most comprehensive kits, which test for more than 10 hormones, cost around $200. If your insurance company covers home testing kits, you may have to pay a copay or meet your deductible, so the cost may vary, depending on the terms of your health plan.

Jurassic Park

On this 5 day trip there were over 20 species
of fish caught. At the 4th day I stopped fishing
and started testing equipment. I was fishing
but monitoring what was failing when and where?
Why was this happening?

Then I got back to the dock.
On June 25, 2009, the American singer Michael Jackson
died of acute propofol intoxication in Los Angeles, California,
at the age of 50.






Is that your real name?





I’m going to visit my family in Greenpoint.





20 beans at the door. In and out.
I’m hanging out with a schmuck and now I forgot my manners.
Spill the beans.





Throw him the F out. He’s going to get everyone pinched.
The Daiwa Tanacom Bull is way too good. I have way to
much fish. I bought a dumbbell and decided to hang crank.
Now we don’t have a choice. We have to squeeze a little.
The world according to Pierre. I’m a doorman

I goto the bridge this morning, half hour.
No more than forty five minutes. I get
a hit and the next cast I catch a micro
schooly bass. Right after I head to Jones.
Yesterday I saw fish busting on the surface
and even one caught that was definitely
over 30”. Today I worked the area for over
four hours and not even a hit.

You won’t believe who I saw dating together.
It was in souF Florida. The look definitely fit.
Definitely NOT what I was accustomed to seeing.

Someone walks in from off the streets and starts
filming with a camera.
Sir you’re not allowed to do that. You’re going to
have to leave.
Ignores me and continues filming the lobby
I’m calling the authorities. I put the phone on
speaker and dialed 311. After the first ring,
picked up the phone and said. This is an emergency
situation we have an intruder inside the building
at XXXX. That’s when he ran out and I went running
after yelling I have you on camera. We’re coming
after you. No harm done. I was talking to the 311
alternate side of the street recording.
Smile





Any one of the other employees. HUH-WUT!!
The blind leading the blind. Hellen Keller artillery sales.

I made this a dead end street for the trucks.
They were illegal dumping at night and the
cops caught the guy and beat the ch!t out of him.
Nobody sees what happened.
I had the car before I opened up the place.





You’re not allowed in here.

New waders more fish. RIDICULOUS!!





You’ll receive a text when your orders ready.
I got 4 spam calls. After a half hour. Here’s
my receipt is it ready? Sorry I didn’t know that
was you. Here it is. I’m here to supervise a
cheeseburger with fries.





I got a haircut and a new pair of shoes. I was so happy.





Wow did that hurt. I worked like it never happened.





I have to walk off lunch.
It took longer to get it than it did to eat it.

This is a different guy than last time.
