Is there a point of starting progesterone? (hexbear.net)

So I kinda wanna do some basic research before taking a deep dive. Until now I have just been doing mono therapy, but some of the results have been ... kinda underwhelming?

Facial hair growth has barely slower down despite me using nair.

Functionality down under is still there (except sperm production is gone). My libido is gone. But when I do go for a session I feel like garbage afterwards.

Breast growth has slowed significantly. This is useful for boy modding, but I am not planning on staying the closet forever. Ok, tbh, I can see myself staying there for a depressingly long time. But that's besides the point.

What I am asking about basically is if taking t-blockers will fix these problems, at least to an extent.

how hrt affects your facial hair is a complete dice roll. my chest and body hair thinned and slowed significantly over the 4 years I've been doing estrogen monotherapy but I had to get laser on my face to see literally any reduction. I'm like 15 sessions in now (thanks Lebanese grandparents) and finally get to enjoy a smooth face

I've never taken prog, I'm around a c cup. no idea if I should even bother with it at this point
