yeah that should be good levels. maybe youre not reacting well to the pills, are you taking the estrogen under the tongue? if not, try that, and then if that doesnt work, maybe needles are the only option :\

if youre super skinny, then gaining weight might be necessary. estrogen collects and is absorbed in adipose tissue, and you need a bit of fat for it to stick around.

Yeah I’m doing sublingually, I wasn’t for the first couple of months though and had to learn about that online because my endo didn’t tell to do it that way, but at this point I’ve been doing it sublingually for the majority of the time I’ve been on HRT

I was in the mid range of a healthy weight before starting HRT and now I’m a little overweight, I’m actually in the process of trying to loose weight right now. But over the course of being on HRT I gained like 40ish lbs, I’ve lost a little less than 10lbs in my current attempt

cat-trans yeah if id hazard a guess the endo would talk to you about getting on injections if you asked them again
