(on 4chan and SOME reddit communities, this is mostly not a problem)It's gotten so bad that trannies assume you are 4chan coded if you don't girlmode for 2 years before groveling in front of some lazy transphobic cissoid for crumbs.why is it like this? what has happened to our people? how can we help them?
>>41442371The fad is no longer as profitable so companies are cutting back on it.
>>41442508what fad?what are they cutting back on?what is no longer profitable?
>>41442371Endos can only prescribe legit.There's no legitimate injectable drug approved by the FDA (or the FDA equiv of where you are) for mtf trans people.EEn/EUn is troonshine, and EUn has 0 medical research (outside of trans communities) behind it.Furthermore, injectables are only 3 year old.50 mg cypro, 4 mg E micronized sublingual was the state of the art 10 years ago when we started desu.6 E is a hondose (liver and breast cancer risk)Due to the side effects of pills, 10 years ago monotherapy and actually useful E levels (> 200pgml) were not imaginable.Now they are.Tech marches on.Welcome to the herd.Ps: go on estrannaise and look at how much EEn you need.Hint: it's NOT 2 mg/wk. more like 6.FUCKING DO BLOODWORK. YMMV.
>>41442371a fanatical devotion to scientism to the point of disregarding anything that didnt come from an apathetic 55 year old in a labcoat. those "hrt is a super dangerous scheduled drug make sure you go through the proper channels sweaty!!!1" posts have facilitated more harm than any army of chudposters could hope to match.
>>41442508you think this is new?
>>41442371is there a version of this that is for type 1 diabetics (i'm cis)
>>41442593> Endos can only prescribe legit.that's the problem> There's no legitimate injectable drug approved by the FDA (or the FDA equiv of where you are) for mtf trans people.exactly. even tho it's far better to.> EEn/EUn is troonshine, and EUn has 0 medical research (outside of trans communities) behind it.fair. mixed up EEn and EC> Furthermore, injectables are only 3 year old.this is just a lie> 50 mg cypro, 4 mg E micronized sublingual was the state of the art 10 years ago when we started desu.also not true but much more common yes> 6 E is a hondose (liver and breast cancer risk)yeah> Due to the side effects of pills, 10 years ago monotherapy and actually useful E levels (> 200pgml) were not imaginable.fair> Hint: it's NOT 2 mg/wk. more like 6.see i knew this but in my head i have .2ml because of my concentration. (stupidity)ty for proofreading nona, i have fixed it
>>41442647i made it in free image editing software
>>41442508?
>>41442706> Mixed up> Mixed EEn and ECOh my fucking goddess what the fuck are you doing? Menstrual cycle approximation? That needs an orchi and EEn/EV (for the ovulation peaks)Go on fucking estrannaise to see the error of your ways.Do. Bloodwork.> 6 EC IMThat's okay, but EC has a shorter half life than EEN, so it's stretching it.> 1 mg oralNo endo in their right mind would prescribe that. Blanchardist fucks in the NHS would> SpiroIs a diuretic.We knew that in 2015.We know that now.Troons need to forget about spiro once and for all. Total spiro death!
just selection bias at play. as per usual autistic people have the upper hand but remain in the shadows.
>>41442508>the pharma companies are raking in billions by selling generics to 0.2% of the populationwhat?
>>41442508you clearly didnt even understand what op is talking about. chuds showing their 70iq points again.
Could you please give me your Discord OP or anyone who would know how much I need to take? I’m sorry, I don’t understand the website with the dosing
>>41442807> Oh my fucking goddess what the fuck are you doing? Menstrual cycle approximation? That needs an orchi and EEn/EV (for the ovulation peaks)yeah why is this wrong ~300 isn't bad no?> Go on fucking estrannaise to see the error of your ways.i do> Do. Bloodwork.i have ... i have like 17ng/dl peak.what r u suggesting?> That's okay, but EC has a shorter half life than EEN, so it's stretching it.but u were right ab it not being as studied and it does have more unpredictable absorption. not as bad as EUn tho..> No endo in their right mind would prescribe that. Blanchardist fucks in the NHS would- picrel isn't literal.- but also i do know trans girls who have been prescribed that yes. it's not uncommon to see dosages like this "starting out" that go on for years until the patient asks for more.. :\> TSDtrvth
>>41442371wider cultural awareness of trans healthcare means more pressure for babytrans to toe the line and listen to their shitty doctor, because now there's more of a sense of legitimacy to doing that
>>41442922hi. do you have estradiol enanthate or what?
>>41442508Tourist
Cheers to my endo who greeted me 10 years ago with the words "I have bo clue what a trans is, so as long as you tell me what you need and can show me why I'll write a prescription"Absolute king shitMan he was based
>>41443140Yes, I have it already. I took some but I think I took too much. I’d really like to talk to someone who knows more than ma
>>41442371So my 4mg IM enanthate injections are useless??????
>>414429224 mg EEn once per week, IM. Do astrovials in the US, Voix Cèleste in the EU. Lurk on /hrtgen/ and for the love of Goddess, do bloodwork!>>41442989I thought you were doing EC AND EEn TOGETHER. That's not okay. EC OR EEn is. > what r u suggestingExactly that. You did your homework, you have great E and T levels so you're okay.> but u were right ab it not being as studiedEUn is the least studied ester. Ec, Ev and Een are good, because those are used widely in cissies for follicle stim and contraception.> but also i do know trans girls who have been prescribed that yesTerf island.Not even once.> picrel isn't literal.Some clueless hussie will think it is. Hussies don't have the AGP perseverance and male-brained logic to do research, so we agp hons must lead the way and produce well-researched mtf memes which can be read literal.But 6 mg/wk EC isn't half bad. So that meme has my nihil obstat.>>41443007> babytrans go legitYeah, as a babytrans I did do legit until the only legit doctor in the country who treated troons as human was arrested and jailed on trumped-up charges.Fortunately I saw the error of my ways and converted to injectables.
>>41442371You should expect to see the medical side of transgenderism disappear eventually, and probably sooner than later. I'm glad, personally. A person shouldn't be pressured into medicalizing themselves to fit in their preferred gender.
>>41443228But Astrovials told me to take 0.15ml a week. Is that a hondose?
>>414432152mg is kinda a conservative dosage. i do 6mg.>>41443211how much did you take? >At sufficiently high exposure, estrogens and androgens are able to completely suppress gonadal sex hormone production, while progestogens by themselves are able to partially but substantially suppress gonadal sex hormone production. More specifically, studies in cisgender men and transfeminine people have found that estradiol levels of around 200 pg/mL (734 pmol/L) suppress testosterone levels by about 90% on average (to ~50 ng/dL [1.7 nmol/L]), while estradiol levels of around 500 pg/mL (1,840 pmol/L) suppress testosterone levels by about 95% on average (to ~20–30 ng/dL [0.7–1.0 nmol/L])https://estrannai.se/#i0__c,6,7,2if you look at this simulator link, 6mg would put me at ~400 pg/mL which is like 90 - 95% test. suppression.
>>41443290> doesn't understand the difference between "ml" and "mg">>41443228> Hussies don't have the AGP perseverance and male-brained logic to do research,holy shit you were right wtf how are people this stupid this is like kindergarten shitholy sh*t
>>414432900.15ml is 6mg and that's perfectly fine
>>41443291Well I have four more weeks to go before blood tests so I'm going to stick to 4 mg. If blood tests don't look too hot then I'll raise it to 6 mg and call it a day.
>>41443291I don’t think I understand. I bought Estradiol Enanthate (MCT) from Astrovials and was told to take 0.15mL of 40mg/mL of EEn once a week. I took 0.6mL by mistake and didn’t like how I felt at all. I’m sorry, I know this must be obvious. I’m just not understanding most of it. I take 6mg sublingual now and 200mg Spiro. My T is undetectable but I’d like to have higher E levels. I’m sorry if this is something obvious. I don’t know anything about this
>>41443329Lul 24mg shotYou should have studied diy hrt better
>>41443329girl 0.6mL is like 24mg. 0.15ml is a good dose
>>41443342I know, some of it leaked out and I thought I could just put some more in. I felt like I didn’t know who I was for a month after
>>41443359It's time to try again but the right way
>>41443346I’m sorry, I know it was dumb of me. I was being really greedy and didn’t understand anything. It’s even more embarrassing the fact that after I did that, I still took 6mg sublingual because I thought the Astrovials stuff did nothing
>>41443375you're crazy lol. are you gonna do injections again?
>>41443395I don’t know. After I did that, I had to stop taking anything for three months. My mom made me go back to my really conservative endocrinologist who had me all sorts of tests just to make sure the crazy dose I took didn’t do anything. I was then put on 4mg sublingual and 200 Spironolactone. Now I’m on 6mg. I want to have higher E levels but I feel so scared because of what I did
>>41443416You fucked up and it's okay. Now you know what to do and how to do it. Just go for it. You'll be glad you won't have to take diuretics anymore. By the way what kind of tests did your endo order? Was anything out of place?
>>41443448So many, I don’t really want to talk about it because it was like not that long ago and I feel so much shame for doing that to myself. I feel really embarrassed talking about it here, people seem to know everything and I don’t really understand it
>>41443416well don't be scared. estrogen is really safe. i remember some post on r/transdiy where some girl did a megadose for months before she realized. pregnant women have estrogen levels in the 1000s for 9 months. it's fine.
>>41443469Well if you're ever ready to try again we'll be here
>>41443471>>41443487Would any of you be okay with giving me your Discord? Do I just stop taking my E and Spiro and take the EEn or do I wait before taking it?
>>41443526i recently did exactly what you did, switched from spiro + pills to injection mono. i did my injections for like a month, and kept up the spiro. after i had the levels stable from injections, i halved the spiro dose for a week then stopped completely. the only difference i noice is i dont piss constantly. still no signs of T returning, but tbf i have not had my blood test yet.
>>41443526Stop taking oral and inject. Some recommend a loading dose (twice normal) to jump you to real E levels and t suppression quickly.>>41443561Do your bloodwork. But basically this. I was post-orchi (post-srs tbqhon), so I could leeroy jenkins but still.>>41443290That's a standard dose of weekly een.Run it on estrannaise.Do. Your. Bloodwork.Immediately before your next injection is due, have a look at: E2, Total T, SHBG and GnRH (on pills: blood clotting and liver factors).Regardless of what ester or pills you're on.Is your E > 200 pgml? (50 pgml on pills)Is your T in tge cisf range?If BOTH are true, then you're on a good dose.If your E is higher than 500 pgml, DECREASE your dose.If your T is higher than cisf range OR your E is LOWER than 150 pgml (25 pgml on pills), then INCREASE your dose.
to answer op, the trans girl friends I have who call me a weirdo for preferring injections over CPA tend to be the ones who follow standard practice in general: they'll take whatever shitty meds their psychiatrist prescribes them without researching them, they get an SRS without being sure if they even want one. And they have to battle the dissonance of knowing they were on high dose CPA for a while, who wouldn't want to deny and pretend those seeking alternative treatments are the fucked ones
>>41442371The real diypill is to destroy your testicles so no more T EVER
seen one tranny say she turned 18 recently and got cut off her hrt. and did not know what to do. she was on reddit and everybody suggested she just tough it out LOL
im on 6mg of e oral and my boobs are finally filling out after like a year and 3/4ths give or take a few months of basically medically detransitioning
>>41442371what do u mean 'what happened'???it used to be that ppl here would girlmode and were more sane and realistic about hrtnow groups have swerved hard into dogma and push social media posts by a guy that doesn't publish evidence for his claims and u think this new trend is the local board culture that is under attack? fascinating
>>41450290At least his idea of titrating estrogen to observable effect doesn't seem completely insane. He's probably not wrong that trans people are disproportionately some kind of mutant or another and may have atypical responses to hormones.He's clearly hyperfixated on his One Theory though. His brand of insanity gets to the right answer faster but it also produces a lot of wrong answers because it accepts correlation by intuition. People shouldn't follow him blindly.Is he why everyone on here thinks you need 400pg/mL to transition though? I'm not everyone and I'm probably my own neat brand of mutant BUT I had full T suppression and noticeable estrogen effects at <100pg/mL.
