      the frustration in this comment isn’t directed at op

      You’re good, and so are any resources that can help people get through this.

      This is all incredibly valid, salient, and informative. However, it should be stressed that DIY is inherently dangerous and can really go bad. Only do so if you are more than confident in your ability to do everything involved.

      I started transition in the early 2000’s before the terms “transition” or even “transgender” were even remotely mainstream. HRT wasn’t a real thing that you could just get prescribed.

      I guess what I’m saying here is that if you have the option and capability, it is worth it (and safer) to do HRT legit. Don’t wind up like me with bare bones information and skill, winding up going through a weird pseudo menopause in your 20’s.

      I have nothing against the idea of DIY, but please stay safe and informed. Don’t trust a single source of information.
