Not being horribly depressed will help your sex drive, believe me. You can use topical t gel as well to keep penis function. A good E dose and prog also help.
You can get diy t-gel by talking to your local gymbros, and rejecting the injectables they will recommend.
gymbros are scary lol i used to go to the gym and its hell nah to interact with them
past month life is just getting worse idk how to not be horribly depressed about things:( im trying to stay afloat
even if i go on hrt id have no clinic where to trst blood levels
Here's a guide that should help pghrt.diy. If you have a proper dosage you should be fine going mono without bloods. It's not as complex as it seems. Tell me if you need help accessing diy meds.
woah looks cool havent seen that website before ty!! yeah seems quite intimidating and if i socially transition right now in the most unstable (socially, financially) part of my life I think I'm fucking myself over in this country but ty!!
You are welcome! At least you can still prepare for when you are able to transition.
~~That last bit has to be the wildest peice of HRT advice I've ever seen and I applaud you for providing it.~~
Addendum: My initial reaction to the reccomendation to "go to a gym bro" was one of suprised mirth. However upon further reflection it is very sad the way many transmasc people must do just this in order to access lifesaving HRT. Its not funny and they deserve better. (The situation is more complicated than that apparently but Ive edited this comment enough times.
Getting T from the gymbros is actually the go-to for transmasc DIY, but yeah it's talked about very little that microdoses of testosterone can have their place in transfem HRT as well
Wait for real? Thats fucked up but makes sense since its a controlled substance in most places. Its actually really sad how transmascs need to find dealers in order to do DIY and I did not realize this till now.
It is actually a material advantage for transmascs, since there is a large non trans market, there's lots of it, and relatively easily available too. If you want to use diy-estradiol, the market only consists of other transfems, so we have to rely on (also trans) homebrewers and specialised online sellers. Our diy supply is far more culnerable to disruptions.
Not really tho? Trans girls had to set all DIY sources up ourselves, the number of vendors is much smaller, in my country there are zero official injectable estrogen medications that are not custom-made in a handful of pharmacies, all of that is different for testosterone.
penis function talk
...does a good e dose and prog improve function again (anecdotally)? I've randomly had function improve and get scared I need a better t blocker dose (which sucks cause my t blocker causes awful mental symptoms) because I really prefer ED lol. I should research this cause if it can just happen with a good dose of the other stuff then as much as that sucks it would relax me in the meantime before surgery.spoiler
Yeah, mine works fine without any t. Everyone reacts differently to Estradiol, but it is not the ED machine. It can cause ED, but that's mostly cause the penis needs to get erections every so often to retain the capacity, especially cause it degrades quicker under E than T.All in all: use it or loose it
