Hi, last year i began taking spironolactone & estradiol and after 6 months i decided to get braces which required a little oral surgery. So I stopped the pills in january. I've had my braces now for a bit over a month and the plan is to keep them atleast 3 years. Ok, so now on thursday I'm going back to see another therapist, one that my last one referred me to. Even though the spiro & estradiol were great, I need to find something out there that's not so much of a cancer risk. Tempie told me about a safer method but I guess I'll just have to ask Lou when I see her next as I've since forgetten what it was.
