United pharmacies is down and I don't know what's happening with it, there's domain issues but idk if it's from a massive fuck up on their part, government stuff or if it'll be back up, it started happening I want to say 18 hours ago so I'm not sure what to think, anyone else have more info?

or has anyone done that in general what were your experiences

This is a thing? I was thinking of doing the swap later on in the year but this is the first time hearing this, sublingual and blockers been pretty good so far

Wanting to start progesterone, never done DIY before tho. Which place is best to get it (UK). Is 100mg oral fine or?

>>44411850
Dont stop your blocker until you're 100% sure you dont need it anymore, like well into the injection cycle.
>>
So i'm about to start and i have 2 vials, one from Hera and one from Celeste (new european seller, supposedly vetted by valerie)
Which one do you think is more reliable rn?
[spoiler]hera was stuck in customs and i thought it was fucked forever, but they let it through right after i ordered celeste lmao[/spoiler]
>>
>>44412148
Oral is fine for some fun mental effects but doesn’t actually raise your P4 levels much at all, definitely not with 100mg. It really needs to be topical or absorbed through a mucus membrane (rectal for trannies). 100 or 200mg is fine for that. Try oral sometime though like 200-400mg makes you kinda high but also really sleepy.
>>
>>44412148
If you want the cheapest cost, choose IndiaMART. Go for a seller named "Well Life Pathway." You will be able to get 400 capsules (40 boxes) of 200 mg for £85 including shipping without needing to pay any additional VAT & customs fees. See https://export.indiamart.com/products/?id=2857082070248 - you can also see my comment on Reddit: https://archive.ph/OdMTG

^ My removed comment (automatically removed due to containing a Telegram link) had their contact details which is welllifepathway@gmail.com

If you want the easiest way to order but slightly expensive then choose AIPCTSHOP. You will be able to get 240 capsules (24 boxes) of 200 mg for £125 including shipping without needing to pay any additional VAT & customs fees. See https://aipctshop.com/shop/gestoford-200-mg-10-capsules/

If you want the most expensive option then choose United Pharmacies UK. You will be able to get 100 capsules (2 boxes) of 200 mg between £116 to £122 including shipping. You need to make sure your order is below £135 to prevent additional VAT & customs fees. See https://www.unitedpharmacies-uk.md/Microgest-Micronised-Progesterone-200mg-50-Capsules-p-1189.html

Any oil-based soft gel caps can be used as suppositories. They melt when you put the capsule in rectally.

I am in the USA and my vial’s about to run out.
On valerie.vg the only two sites listed that have injection vials in stock are Symphony Labs and Calyx Labs. What do you all know about them?
>>
>>44417535
symphony is bad and leaks user data, avoid at all costs
see: >>44345930
most of that post is true but not all, lot of discussion and drama surrounding it

it's rough buying right now, dea working overtime
>>
>>44417637
Well, I checked out the only other one available and they’re based in Canada and don’t ship internationally.
What am I supposed to do? Do you know of any other diy hrt provider that offers injections and ships to the US?
Do I just go on pills atp?
>>
>>44417688
I don't know, I'm >>44417264
bought a month ago and my tracking said a US state like a week ago, and now my tracking is gone, and it never arrived

>Do you know of any other diy hrt provider that offers injections and ships to the US?
There are a few which are currently in stock and ship to the US.

Brazil based homebrewers:
• Anima Mundi = https://animamundipharma.com

Ukraine based homebrewers:
• Lena's HRT = http://lena.kiev.ua/EV/

Malaysia based homebrewers:
• MYcare = https://mycarerx.easy.co
>>
>>44419198
Has anyone tried the vials of Estradiol Enanthate from Purple Panda? I'd rather buy from a homebrewer, but it'd be nice to know whether those are viable.
>>
has anyone here found out that they *need* a blocker for any sort of reason?

Question out of pure curiosity, what would happen if you didn't have any testosterone or estrogen in your system, like if you're post orchi or on GnRH agonists and only took progesterone?
>>
I'm a month and a half post orchie and my T levels are exactly the same as before. They were never in male ranges but they're higher than typical female range and it makes me tranny in some uncomfortable ways. Such as my voice, it's really growly and I get voice cracks when I don't take bicalutamide.

My T level is 63 and I was taking bicalutamide but my doctor discontinued it because she was afraid of "liver toxicity" even though my panels for that have all been great. I have an appointment with her tomorrow and plan to bring it up, is there any research I should know of? I know there are cases in which T levels can drastic go up post orchie but I forgot what the mechanism for that is called.
>>
>>44419653
>post orchiectomy
You will still produce T and E at low levels through your adrenal glands and adipose tissue, and but it could possibly start to give you bone atrophy if the levels produced by them isn't enough. It's situational however. If you are a natal male and spend some years of your life producing testosterone normally, there is a theory I believe that your adrenal glands will produce testosterone.

If you just took prog you would also masculinize slightly due to the fact it is a mild androgen. However there is something else to worry about, backdoor synthesis of prog to DHT which typically only occurs in detectably rare genetic disorders but might have other mechanisms as well.
>>44415889
Domperidone
>>44412414
Don't guess it, use artemisanalytical.cc
>>
>>44420361
>your adrenal glands will produce testosterone
Is this true, will my body betray me like this. Also what if you took prog instead of e or t?
>>
>>44420440
Read the rest of my post. And yes adrenal glands normally produce testosterone and estrogen, this is what they are expected to do. The theory is that when you undergo masculinization initially your adrenal glands can be converted towards testosterone production but it can be reversed with enough E/AAs.
>>
>>44420465
Sorry nona I'm currently drunkposting and missed it. Currently also on dut if that matters at all.
>>
>>44420513
Dut would prevent the backdoor synthesis pathway to DHT I'm pretty sure, but I think there's other more obscure pathways to worry about.
>>
>>44420551
So there wouldn't be any point in taking prog then, I just considered it since I was hoping I could get around the osteoporosis risk from eunuchrepping by taking it.
>>
>>44419393
that's what I bought here: >>44417264
I believe they're legit I just got unlucky...
>>
>>44420576
prog contributes to fat distribution and it can cause your boobs to enter later tanner stages. However if you arent taking estrogen in conjunction with that it will probably not be used for that purpose and might also be broken down into other hormones (such as is the case with men who take prog).
>>
I forgot to mention that prog also has some anti androgen qualities as well, though I don't have the energy to find exact citations right now.
>>
>>44420643
I do wonder if prog or one of its analogues could be used by itself as a nonbinary hormone. There's also anavar montherapy for pooners.
