Found out that I can just go to a pharmacy and buy estradiol enantate/dihydroxyprogesterone acetophenide(synthetic progestogen) that's sold as an injectable birth control and is widely used by trans woman, apparently without side-effects and is sold at like 10mg of Een per dose, so I could maybe just do half a dose every 10 days (idk how the fuck this comes packaged, might have to do 10mg every 14 days or something). This thing is super cheap, like 2 dollars per dose and is easy to find. Maybe I'll go for it I guess.

huh, interesting. I thought I had heard bad things about synthetic prog but maybe this one is fine? https://transfemscience.org/articles/transfem-intro/#injectable-progesterone

2 bucks a month is super cheap, hell yea. Hope it works well for you.

Old synthetics progesterone were really bad (for both cis and trans women). Lots of modern birth control uses newer better ones. There isn't lots of data for transfems though. I generally think they'd be relatively safe though.

Yeah that one should be fine.

I only looked at one article though, should probably research it a bit more before this, but it seems fine. It's a little bit of a compromise too, it might not even do anything for real, but this is easily available.

Synthetic estrogen is pretty bad though, do not use that. I still have quite a bit of E so this is my backup plan if I can't get another vial

If it comes in a little glass ampoules that you have to break open you're better off using most or all of it every 14 days instead of trying to save half.

It's a good option if those are available to you.

[โ€“] Alisu@hexbear.net 2 points 4 days ago

Yeah, I need to buy one and check it out
