She injected estrogen and you won't believe what happened next!!!
| nah my shot is tmr
good job with the injection
since this isn't an ama thread: how do you feel hades 2 impacts the hades franchise? is it a generally positive development?
| >>1114798 happy to ama just forgor to put in the post
You may crucify me for this but I've played neither of them, so no opinion
| It's the 30th today.
| I just take pills, idk I been thinking of doing sublingual but is it really better?
| If I was president, I'd give HRT access to everyone that needs it, for free, paid by the state with yummy and well used taxes
| >>1114832 Idk but it's the only option here so there's that
Pills have to go through the liver so that may make them less effective?
Sublingual is supposed to deliver them right to your bloodstream or something
| >>1114839 I believe sublingual results in quicker absorbtion so a shorter effective half-life, but is also more effective at delivering E itself because first pass as mentioned
The main benefit to injections is most people can do monotherapy because most t-blockers have not great side effects (if you experience them)
Exception is the gnrh agonists that are used as puberty blockers but for some reason they won't give to adults despite them being better overall :/
| I'm kinda curious what country you're in where pills are the only option if you don't mind answering
In the US a lot of Drs don't like to prescribe things other than pills but other options are totally available
| >>1114862
Uruguay
For some reason there seems to be no injectables, at least I haven't found them yet.
| Hooray : D I love tuesdays, even if my online was broken!
| Mein online bist kaputt!!!
| >>1114872 oh I see
I think you might be able to get gel or patches from a curiosity search?
Not sure honestly, I know patches are very in demand RN so they might not be consistently available, and IDK the effectiveness of gels
Doing sublingual pills might be your best option girl
| >>1114869 what ester are you on that you do monthly? I assume in the butt means you're having a nurse or someone else do your injection for you since that's kinda awkward for self Injections
| >>1114902 yeah I can get gel, but the pills are a lot cheaper too
I figured sublingual must be the way jsj
Thanks girl
| Bleh gonna have to text a family member and ask them to quit using my deadname tonight :/
If only I felt connected to my gender neutral deadname literally ever so I could have just not changed it
| I don't think it's like intentionally hostile just 0 clue about why that's a bad thing, I just kinda wish I didn't have to teach most of my family this stuff
| :( I’m sorry g/u/rl. I have a trans fem (I wrote trans woman first but I think trans fem is nicer and less intimidating) in my family who is really nice and safe. Do you have some nice family members who help you feel relaxed? I hope this one doesn’t take it too hard :< and I hope you’re feeling ok
| Uhh not really but I will be okay, this family member is fortunately genuinely trying to be respectful etc just knows very little about anything queer so it should be alright
I've been pretty drained this week but things will be fine once I get a chance to recover
| Ok good :) I’m sorry if I stressed you. I really like your threads but I struggle sometimes to say the right things.
Refresh
| I think I'm out of amusing titles
Injection was good no blood no pain
This week was kinda long, feels like I robbed spoons from next week to pay for what I had to do this week
Hope you're all doing well and taking your estrogen
