  • this was alot of cool information but im just looking for Estrogen not hard drugs and black market organs. Hrt isnt even illigal in my country they just dont sell it and no one is going to take a trans persob seriously here for me to get a prescription. Im in that weird place where my culture is so anti lgbtq that they basically know nothing about it trans people are just gay with extra steps and the average person doesnt even know trans people take hormones instead of just cross dressing. getting a knock on the door for drugs is the least of my concerns im more likly to get beat to death for being cuaght wearing a dress or kissing a guy.





  • sorry for the late response.

    I don’t think simulating a cycle is “better” than using consistent dosages. I’m saying that the fact that the assumption seems to be consistent hrt levels is better for trans people than mimicking a natural cycle without actual tests on the subject feels backwards when this isn’t really how our bodies evolved to function.

    it would be like if doctors recommened a dyabetic taking consistent insulin injections to mimic the “avarage” insulin levels of a “normal” person rather than after spikes in suger intack.

    I may only have an AP level understanding of biolagy but I know that your hormone system as a whole is a regulatory system fundementally that is supposed to rise and fall in response to your bodies conditions not in spite it.

    While i highly doubt perfect replication of the female cycle is ideal for trans-women (until maybe artifical womb transplants become a thing) i also think the assuption that consistent levels is dumb.

    Also side note I had no intention of copying menapose even in cis women that is literally a sign of your body breaking down after you live longer than your expected to.
