Hai everybody! :3
We haven't been around much lately, but we've missed you all <3
As much as we enjoy talking about electromagnetism and the like, we're really feeling trans joy as the theme for this mega post. And we'd love to hear some of the things that have brought you all some joy lately (without doxxing yourselves of course).
Something that is bringing us a lot of joy right now is seeing the local trans community finding each other and making joy for ourselves. They're planning events, going out, finding love and friendship, and refusing to allow our circumstances prevent us from enjoying life and having fun as much as possible. And we're part of it! We've been doing the same! And it doesn't just make this life tolerable in the face of all the bad stuff happening, it's making this life beautiful and filled with love and happiness.
In order to try to get back in the habit of participating here, we're going to try to at least post one bit of trans joy every day here this week.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

You've gotten a lot of responses really fast so hopefully they can be a bit more helpful with side effect stuff. The big reason I've seen is people complaining about side effects, peeing more, mental fog, few others probably. A lot of people start on Spiro and switch to cypro later tbh. Spiro also doesn't work as well, I mean you're getting good results but that can be a factor. Spiro is mostly prescribed in the US, internationally bica/cypro are much more common.
If you need help with diy feel free to message me anytime, that's what I'm on and it's pretty great.
I see somewhere else you asked what a good E dose is, it depends a lot on method, what your levels look like, and how you feel. For pills probably like 4-6mg. Depends on E levels and shgb (if you can get that tested).
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your responses! I've been taking patches because injections are not my thing (and there is a shortage here), and pills can be hard on your liver and harder to get consistent levels (from what my doctor was saying).
