It's been a bit over a year since I last shared my transition progress on here so I thought I want to update you all.

Thank you so much for the write-up!

I am on injections myself. Wish I could get EE but currently stuck with EV, since that is the only available form here.

I'm on EV as well because it's the main ester that doctors can prescribe here. I was able to get a Rx for estradiol cypionate, but the concentration was so low that I had to fill my syringe and inject three times to get a single dose and that just wasn't worth it. Maybe post-orchi when I'm no longer on high-dose monotherapy I could revisit that.

EEn is more common for DIY, and if you're in the U.S. for the next 4 years, it's probably worth figuring out how to source that (probably better sooner vs later, having a stockpile is a good idea).
