Dear user,
THANKS FOR CONSULTING AT HCM

COULD U PLEASE TELL ME THE DOSAGE OF ESTROFEM YOU ARE USING.. IF YOUR DOCTOR HAS TOLD YOU ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE BEING HIGH
I WOULD LIKE TO SUGGEST YOU TO BE TREATED WITH LOW DOSE ESTROFEM ABOUT 1-2MG WITH TABLET SPIRONOLACTONE AT 25MG AND THEN GRADUALLY INCREASE THE DOSAGE IF REQUIRED.

SPIRONOLACTONE WILL HELP YOU TO MAINTAIN YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE AS WELL AS WILL HELP YOU WITH YOUR PROBLEMS RELATED TO TRANSGENDER ..
BUT THIS IS TO BE DONE AFTER PROPER CONSULTATION WITH A PHYSICIAN AND AFTER MEASUREMENT OF POTASSIUM LEVELS.
I find this answer helpful
