I asked my close friend who is a pharmacist (+15 years) about your post. They said:

L25 is aurobinda pharmas generic

L20 is sunovians generic

Manufacturers have to provide evidence of bioevilablence to fda for approval

It sounds like your pharmacy had its generic supplier changed for some reason.

Ubuntu and I have a lot of work to do in the morning

Edit: Ubuntu is a very distressing person

This is a great suggestion; thanks!

I absolutely love Ted Lasso; it’s my absolute favorite show. But…this does not sound good. The 3 seasons they created are special and really well done. For them to come back, after they wrote and told their cohesive story, feels like it won’t end well.

I am a huge fan of DXM. I have been taking it off and on for the past decade (I’m in my 40s now). The trips are really peaceful for me and relaxing. The best part is the afterglow; the time when the trip is over, but you still feel different. The afterglow feels like I’ve been reborn; it is mentally cleansing for me. I always feel so bright and happy the day after I do DXM.

Of the 3 main DXM formulations, I enjoy DXM HBr the most, followed by DXM Polistirex, then DXM freebase.

My advice for anyone about to try DXM: start with small doses; give your body time to clear everything before you trip again (at least 2 weeks; a month is better); most importantly, be in a safe headspace.

If you’re like me and you cannot stand the taste of Robitussin or Delsym, look into purchasing from RoboCough. They sell DXM (HBr and freebase) in pill form.

Does anyone remember this episode from the show Ugly Americans? This comic reminds me of it.

I love this! Thanks for sharing.

I changed to every 5 days with 5 mg, but I kept lowering my dose (I was afraid of my endo forcing me onto a lower dose if my blood work showed too high E levels).

Something to think about in terms of your estradiol results is how long it’s been since your last injection. I’ve had several providers tell me they don’t care how long it’s been since my last injection, they just want to see. I push back that and only let them draw when it’s a true trough sample (e.g. I inject every 7 days, so I have blood drawn on that 7th day before I inject). This will give you (and your endo) a truer value to base your dosages/frequency on.

(bicalutamide didn’t seem to have any effect on my mood, positive or negative, so I stopped using it)

I had a similar experience to bicalutamide, but I kept taking it up until my orchiectomy. I tried spironolactone, but I didn’t like the results. If you’re not in the US, ask your doctor about cyproterone acetate. That stuff made me feel levelheaded; sadly because I was self medicating I had to stop when I began seeing a professional.

Another factor: I started HRT three months ago, so it could be that my body more easily slides back to testosterone right now and I just need to get over this initial transition to a new hormone regime.

This definitely sounds true. Based on my experiences, the first several months had ups and downs (hormone-wise). When those lows hit you, talk to a therapist, hangout with a friend, do a mini-fashion show in your room, go for a hike. The lows will pass; things definitely get easier. 💜

I used to have really bad mood swings that included lots of dysphoria. I made the soonest appointment with my doctor and brought this up to them. They changed the frequency of my injections to be closer together. This worked for me really well.

Alternatives could be different delivery methods like the patch or pills to help reduce the fluctuations in estradiol levels.

Stay strong girl friend 💜

About fucking time. I refuse to stay in an Airbnb because of their camera policies.

This is so cool. I wish that the Wikipedia wasn’t so short. Thanks for sharing!

That was a great watch. Makes me really miss Bourdain.
