Does Spironolactone and estrogen stop male bone growth?

I’m 15 and I started taking spironolactone in novemeber (my birthdays in august) . I took phytoestrogens when I was 14. Will spironolactone stop my bone growth? and will estrogen help? I’m doing Hormone replacement therapy to become a female. I have a good female face and i dont want it to get any bigger. So will this do the trick? Also I think i might have PMS. does that happen when you start young?

You sound like you’re self-medicating…. always a bad idea. Without monitoring by a doctor you have no idea if you’re taking too little or too much. Not to mention possible liver damage.

Please see a doctor.

Done correctly HRT will prevent further masculnization. But like I said without a doctor you have no idea if what you’re doing is right.

Do your parents know?

How will you hide the changes?

yngblkbe: You may be a critical care nurse, but if you don’t know anything about hormone replacement therapy for transsexual people I wish you wouldn’t say anything. A lot of what you wrote simply doesn’t apply to us.

Raquel: You might not understand, but we know what we’re talking about, we’ve been through the process already. We have know others who damaged their body with HRT because they thought they knew what they were doing. Both me and Diane are health professionals and we both did things the right way, that is with a doctor, because we know we don’t know everything.

We are on your side. We don’t want you to get hurt or possibly kill yourself.

Please talk with your parents.

Please see a doctor.
