      Don’t take medical advice that doesn’t come from a doctor.

      (Did you take spironolactone for Hyperaldosteronism, or just for the breasts. Because those side effects look horrible)

        Hey person, my licensed doctors told me I was supposed to put my entire weekly dosage of estradiol on every Monday. So there, doctors are not infallible.

      Oh, is this a common occurrence with spiro? I heard it once from a stranger in a bar, but I’ve never heard it elsewhere until now.
