medical rant
If hrt came in gummy form, We'd be so much better off. I dont wanna eat 2 more pills every single freaking day. I demand Estrabears, this is why we need gender communism. I really dont want to eat 2 more pills but under gender capitalism we are brought to pay for cheaper pills instead of better options. I can't even start hrt yet but if I did it would probably suck because I can only afford pills which would probably kill me because I'm like super unhealthy and at risk of hypertension.πππDo you take other pills already? I take like over a dozen other pills already, so throwing hrt in wasn't even noticeable. But sometimes I forget that there are people who aren't used to that.
Yea, I take 2 other pills.
Why not do diy injections? That's what I do partially to avoid eating several pills a day
I'm poor as shit, I have zero social or financial support from my guardian and make broke ass money off microtask slavery.
Injections are often the cheapest if DIY, years of doses can be bought for tens of dollars.
Injections and DIY scare meπππ
They scared the shit out of me too, both before i started and for about 6 months after i started. Fwiw, if you get diy injections that use MCT as the carrier oil, its thin enough that you can use 31g insulin needles to inject. Its tiny, almost painless, and you dont have to go into the muscle. At one point i was using either 6mm or 8mm (i cant remember which) long needles for it with no leakage. I know its scary, and i cant tell you to do injections. You know yourself far better than i do. But if you feel like you maybe possibly might be capable of it, even just a 1% chance, its worth checking out. My first injection took me 45 minutes to do. 45 minutes to slowly push a tiny 31g needle into my fat tissue. I was so terrified. I was shaking and scared. But it was worth it. I still cant do intramuscular. But subq is just as effective and is far far easier.
I like HRT pills? I pop 4 under my tongue and read trans fiction before bed while kicking my legs.
Or I take them while doing Tarot. Iβm not particularly spiritual but I figure if thereβs any cosmic power to tap Iβm gonna get while defying god/fate etc.
