Sadly this was me on injections. I’m happy I’m back to pills 😞

interesting! was it just pain from the injection sites? or emotional fluctuation stuff? i have an appointment later today to talk to my doctor about administering options, so this may be useful info

I’m so used to being probed with needles (between HRT, vaccinations, booster shots, and being a TOUGH stick for IVs) so no pain. My levels *looked* good but my body was not taking to it very well so I experienced what I did with withdrawal prior— I was always tired and unmotivated, groggy and foggy, etc. I seem to be a definite outlier as I’ve not met anyone else who had that with injections, so I wouldn’t let it bother you. The weekly dosing was easier to manage than daily for sure, too!

(I have tried patches, too, but they never stuck well or they stuck TOO well and I kept getting lint and hair stuck on them so decided pills would be easier than the headache from them 😂)
