So I been on HRT now for almost 6 months and I was wondering does the emotional roller coaster eventually level off and has anyone had urination issues due to HRT? I talked to my doctor about this and she is also trying to decipher what is happening. Any advice or info would be very much appreciated,

I'm a trans guy and can only offer the advice from living as a cis female. Once your hormone levels stabilize, the roller coaster ride of emotions should also level off. You also need to keep in mind that t levels will also play a part. My girlfriend is a transgender female and we have been battling her t levels. The endo just increased her t blocker again. Her emotions are everywhere. I'm not sure about the urination issue but I will ask her and let you know. Oh BTW she has been on hrt for almost a year.

Hi PJ,
I'm a tf myself and from my experience they will level off to some degree , but you will have moments that they will feel out of wack, but you must realize that some biological females go through some or more that. Others

Mood swings are very common while on HRT. Some things may increase, while other things may decrease over a period of time. As for urinary issues, a treating doctor who specialize in hormones can be of some help, but likely a urologist can answer that question for you.

Your right Rhonda,
About the many trips to the little girls room , sometimes it common but not to frequent
UST keep tabs on the amount of trips, to much in countinuious trip could mean an infection.
