there is no such shift

it's not "you disgust me" -> "I wanted a normal family"

it's "I wanted a normal family and you disgust me"

Europe has been attempting to negotiate with Putin before Trump ever entered the picture.

And the negotiations between Trump and Putin are just theatrics, nothing more.

Your proposal seems like a reasonable starting point on the face of it. But is unrealistic for several reasons.

The UK and France don't have the political capital to threaten war on Russia. RN and Reform would likely dramatically surge in popularity.

Also Putin is obsessed with Novorossyia at a minimum and would interpret the threats of entry into the war as a bluff and try and call it.

And there are a lot of boomers still in charge who can't accept that the Europe-US alliance has become transactional and thus unreliable.

there is no negotiating with Putin

Europe has been trying that since 2014

What's the context?

Some unscheduled out of spec combustion at the local refinery?

Male Pattern Baldness is driven by DHT. If your testosterone is sufficiently suppressed by HRT then banding should completely stop progressing and most likely start reversing to a limited extent.

I think androgen receptor blockers like Bicalutamide might be ineffective in that regard though, and you'd have to add finasteride/dutasteride to block DHT conversion. Someone with more knowledge would have to chime in. Personally I'm doing monotherapy.

If you're balding for other reasons, then HRT will most likely not stop it and you should investigate the underlying medical issue.

That said it's perfectly normal to lose a bunch of hair when brushing or in the shower. Hair continuously falls out and regrows. It should only be concerning when that amount suddenly increases a lot.

If Tuapse is any indication it would seem that they are changing their approach.

Instead of causing a bit of damage to every refinery within range they're trying to completely obliterate them one at a time.

We'll see I guess.

Do they not realize gas in Europe is not anywhere as cheap as it is in the US?

"what air defense doing" indeed

the number of intact tank clusters suggests there will be at least a fourth and fifth attack.

Is. ml like a tankie hot spot?

I already made sure to tag that user in particular for future reference.

Anytime any magical recommendation references an age as a hard cut-off instead of physical attributes like weight or developmental stage it's bullshit. The body doesn't follow a strict time line.

The very fact that natal puberty starts at very different ages should make it glaringly obvious that any hormone related discussion cannot and must not be age dependent.

There is no biological reason to choose 18 as a cut-off. It is entirely a product of how our societies are structured. Without that specific structure where 18 is considered legal maturity that age would not be chosen as a cut-off.

As such this is not a medically motivated recommendation, but a legally motivated one. And as such this recommendation is not in the patient's best medical interest. It's the medical professionals covering their asses.

It's medical malpractice.
