I've never really researched androgen usage in women, but I would assume it's in regard to the aromatization of testosterone to estrogen, but I have little understanding to the significance of aromatase in women. In men however, bioidentical and endogenous testosterone is aromatized into estrodial through interaction with aromatase.Minor PL: I had a hysterectomy last year and had a follow up today. The topic of testosterone for women came up (for menopause symptoms, not transition).
According to my doctor testosterone injections are not really supposed to be used by women. She didn't get into why. I wish she had for purposes of this sperging, but it would have been off-topic in the appointment and I didn't want to sound retarded. She also said that testosterone works best in women with a little estrogen to go along with it. So in her clinic she only gives both to women, preferably in a compounded cream so the dose can be more finely controlled.
I wonder if tifs who have hysterectomies because of being on T still end up having estrogen prescribed to them. I think it would be hilarious if they did, but something tells me they don't because that would probably be ~dysphoric~ to these True and Honest manz and there would be much whining.
Anyway, grain of salt, etc. Just thought some people might find that interesting.
This would make prescribing an estrogen largely useless for a tif. I do wonder if that could lead to bitch tits though, it's pretty similar to the mechanism by which teenage boys and dudes abusing anabolic steroids would get bitch tits.
