    What’s the intended effect? I guess I’m asking what changes are you interested in that makes you not take the anti androgen

      I’m actively seeking a mixed gender presentation, so I don’t want to suppress my testosterone entirely. I want to keep my moustache and masculine sexual function, but feminize my body hair, soften my skin, grow some itty bitty titties, and make my figure more curvaceous.

      I’d say I’m getting there! =D

        I’m looking this up now and it seems like estradiol can supress testosterone alone without an antiandrogen. Are the doses of your other meds lower than what someone fully mtf would take or something?

          Progesterone too, but as of my last testing my T levels are still in the low end of the “normal” range for men.

          My hormonal dosages are fairly close to the minimum, 2mg oral E and 100mg P. Though, I’m on 5mg of Finasteride and the typical dose for treating hirsutism with that is 2mg.
