(No relation to Cash_Altruistic’s post I just saw it lol)
I’m ecstatic. Ive felt so unmotivated and down for a while now, and it went from being in a dark tunnel to middle of the day in Arizona or something.

I just wanted to say how happy I am and it’s almost unbelievable how I was in a long denial a month ago.

Thank you all! You’re all amazing and I’m so thankful, especially to one person I pm’d who explained diy to me, since before that I was going to spend all of my money at planned parenthood and probably go into debt or not be able to move out.

Thank you all so much (and the other people who encouraging transition from other subs) yall saved me

Así que es una buena noticia, todavia tenemos a Aurelia y Astrovials...sinceramente me estaba poniendo muy nervioso pensando que ya nadie iba a exportar a México...

HRT Trans Fem Can someone point me to research on Estrogen trough levels? NSFW

26 Upvotes

Hi everyone.

Recently my prescribing doctor retired and I was replaced with a new one. My previous doctor had been prescribing me my chosen levels of injectable dose that worked best for me even though my trough sat at ~320 pg/mL because mentally this is what works best for me. I had been on this dose for 3.5 years with no issues.

My new doctor ordered me to take a blood test recently and is checking my E and T levels. I’m concerned he may adjust my dose (lower it) and I cannot tolerate that by any means, it would be devastating to my health.

My question is, does anyone have any good research I can point my doctor to in case he tries it with me? I was reading about the UCSF guidelines etc. but it would be amazing if I could point him to research that could support higher E levels for mental dysphoria reasons. To me, the clot risk (if any substantial at all with injectable estradiol valerate) far outweighs the mental dysphoria I experience when my levels drop below 300 pg/mL.

Thank you !

I know maybe wrong sub but, is anyone DIYing with OCD? I am trying but it's triggering my OCD really badly. I am going to try find an OCD therapist but yeah, it's going to take a while. Please no reassurance from people who don't have OCD you don't get it.

I was just wondering if anyone was in a similar boat. The OCD is just as bad as the dysphoria I don't know what to do. Feel like I lose whatever I choose.

hi, i have ordered a vial of hrt and a few syringes & needles and have currently been worrying about a trip to brazil i have in june next year. I want to travel with my estradiol vial and my syringes in my bag but i am not sure how customs in Guarulhos Airport (principal airport in brazil) would deal with it, and how coming back to the UK (through Heathrow) would work aswell, i have heard that it is illegal to bring injectable hrt into the UK which has also worried me a bit more.

Im having some trouble finding a store that ships to canada, does anyone have any suggestions? Ive been getting my hrt through an informed consent clinic for 6 years, but my NP quit and I have to wait for them to transfer me to a new one, which according to their google reviews, is going to take months.

So, any suggestions? And if anyone has any resources on how to use crypto that would be amazing as well, cause I have no clue


r/TransDIY • • 13h ago

Payment, Shipping, Procurement Is it important to get crypto from non-KYC sources or does it not matter? NSFW

9 Upvotes

I see lots of comments from people doing both. P2P seems more involved to get set up but less exposure legally?

All of the consumer-grade stuff seems simple enough but the initial purchase of crypto for fiat is tied to me. Does that matter, or is it all fine because the purchase to the vendor is P2P with no real record?

I have only the vaguest idea how any of this works

TIA!

Bloodwork US based, what am I looking for NSFW

3 Upvotes

Hey! I'm trying to figure out what test I need from labcorp to set up an appointment, but I'm kind of stupid so I can't tell which of their options I should select. I am trying to take estrogen and possibly a t-blocker, although a friend of mine said they had been just taking enough E to outweigh their T levels and that it worked pretty well.... Monotherapy?

I know I need to check what my t levels are and presumably my e levels too so I know how much to dose. I just don't know what I'm looking for on the webpage. They have an obvious testosterone test...

Bloodwork New estrogen bloods results, need help ! NSFW

2 Upvotes

I just got my bloodwork in today and my trough is now at 496 pg/mL. Last year it was 320 pg/mL. I have been taking the same dose for 3.5 years and it was usually always around the same although in the last year or two I noticed it was steadily climbing.

My testosterone has also been slowly increasing. When I first started monotherapy with injectable estrogen I was between 20-32 ng/dL and now I’m 40 ng/dL.

Not sure what to do next, and my doctor definitely will not be much help. (I posted another post about my new doctor on the forum earlier today)

holy fuck I'm so nervous and excited. I've been obsessing about this but I finally managed to get some money together AND caught TWO vials of EEN from Hera!! no idea how long until it's here but the fact that it's all processed has me feeling crazyyyy ahhh.

I know hera had some controversy with underdosed vials recently and hera herself left the operation. if I had more options rn I would've considered another vendor but their statement as far as I could tell seemed reasonable and I'd be surprised if they were to have the same issue happen right after that big clusgerfuck. altho maybe I should get them tested when they arrive? anyone have experience with them good or bad?

oh god I still gotta get like syringes and all that stuff. but I'll figure that out. just so excited to have the gears moving, I feel testosterone poisoning me more and more as time goes on and I just NEED to experience life on E. Thank you to everyone who helped me out in my last post!!! love you all ahhhhhh

Currently looking into other DIY methods but im genuinely ugly crying over this, I dont have a clue what im supposed to do for dosages or what method to use or where i should buy from, I think every other method needs an anti androgen with it too which im completely lost with

Im sure its probably easier than im making it to be but I'm THIS close to just giving up, my subhuman ass cant do this
