I forgot that it's my mega week so no big info dump this time. Instead I bring a question: how do you practice gender self-care? Do you have any activities or rituals that make you feel more comfortable in your gender? Painting my nails and taking care of my hair are the most consistent ones. These shouldn't even be considered gendered activities by society, but I missed out on having long hair and painted nails when I was younger because of my assigned gender, so doing them now feels validating and gives me confidence.

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.

When I get to my new state I can try to figure out insurance and doctors and see if they'll give me a script. Right now I'm on diy so not really.

Oh okay that's rough. Sometimes it can be ordered greymarket from overseas but that can get seized.

I think it might help, everyone is different but I found it very stabilizing like a slow and steady bass to balance out the estrogen which was beautiful but all over the place.

Yea I feel like it could be a bit. Greymarket is also kinda expensive.

Oooh that's intriguing, thank you. Most of what I've heard was just horny and makes you sleep good. So it's good to know it helps in other ways because those two effects aren't that appealing to me (although breast growth is)

Orally it really helped my sleep but made me very emotional.

Rectally I have breast growth, a steadiness to my emotions and I'm feral horny.

In my case, it made me into a crier. I had a really unhealthy grip on my emotions for my whole life, I probably hadn't cried for a decade, but prog turned the water works back on and just never stopped.
