So I started HRT 6 weeks and it seems like, that the amount I have to sleephas skyrocketed since then. Before it was impossible for me to sleep more than 9-10h, now if nothing wakes me up I easily sleep 11-12h. If I wake up after 9h of sleep I feel like I barely slept at all and I get quite tired over the day. I know that this is an expected side effect of HRT (or puberty in general) but I did not expect for this to happen this fast. When did you started to get so tired?
Are you noticing significant changes from the HRT?
To be clear, I’m no expert in this area, but it seems to me that if your body is changing then the fatigue might be just due to that, but if you’re not noticing a lot of changes it’s probably something else.
Like, maybe your HRT meds are not dosed properly and your hormone levels are unhealthy. It’s probably worth having your hormone levels checked if you can, either way, to see if that’s the issue.
I am noticing changes (breasts are starting to grow and I’m feeling the emotional changes)
I Am also planning on getting my levels check in January.
Good luck! Hopefully they are able to help. And I’m glad that the changes are working at least.
