Testosterone tender breasts - any advice
« on: May 08, 2024, 08:57:16 PM »

Hi

I've been prescribed testosterone, using a pump every other day. My breasts are v tender. I'm post menopause and have been taking hrt for for 7 years so know it's definitely the introduction of testosterone causing the soreness.
Should I persevere, cut down or stop?
Anyone else had this problem? No other symptoms
Any advice or insights appreciated
Thank you

I went on 25 mg of DHEA, and estradiol and progesterone cream. My boobs have just been in pain nonstop for the past week and a half so I stopped using HRT and the DHEA. I have excruciating back pain neck and shoulder. Does anybody else have back pain? I feel like I’m going crazy my anxiety have worsened but my heart palpitations have stopped because I stopped all caffeine and sugar at the same time.  I play tennis and am somewhat active. But my boobs and my back are doing me in! Any help would be great. Also I’m not on any medication’s I refuse.  I love magnesium and turmeric  … I am 53

It isn't a problem I've had but I would cut down for now and increase it again slowly when it's settled.

Thanks, yeah I'm going to try cutting down to twice a week rather than every other day, just wondered if anyone else had any experience as I can't find anything online. Apart from the site books in feeling great on it. Better mood and energy levels, so I'm reluctant to stop altogether.
