Genital Surgery minus 22 days

[the_fantastic_ms_fox]

Tomorrow is the last day that I'm on Novo-Spironoactalone.

As in "Last Day Ever."

Novospironoactalone (AKA "Spiro" AKA "Mr Agnew.") does the following things:

1 - antagonize androgens, diminishing prostate inflammation if you take a little, shutting down testosterone production if you take a lot
2 - make you pee
3 - make you tired
4 - drop your blood-pressure (which can complicate surgery)
5 - make it a bad idea to drink some potassium-rich artificial sweeteners and that no-sodium table-salt (or so I infer)

I shan't miss it.

I will miss its ability to quash boy-hormones. But only for three weeks. Then my nuts come off, and I will never have to take it again.


Another milestone

Oh man! Yeah I was on that for my acne, and holy shit did it suck!
In addition to everything you just mentioned, it did NOT cure my acne, made me get rashes all over, my skin was so dry that I was applying face moisturizer 4x a day, made my periods inconsistent (lucky you, you'll never have that problem!), and killed my libido entirely.

Woo 3 weeks!! When do you leave??

I leave on the 4th and kiss my balls goodbye on the 6th.
