My Transition - Experiences and Recommendations | true |
|
|
Personal
- egg crack late.
- -> issues since childhood
- ~> polictics
- ~> timeline of trans-regulations in germany
- tl;dr: only now a "safe enough environment" given the rest of my time remaining
medical
- informed myself pretty good about what happens
- link resources like transfemscience
- link TT-Discord
- gatekeeping
- procedures if you got "normal" health insurance vs. procedure when you just pay yourself.
- the "neccessity" for the complicated procedure is not rooted in medical protection. Just protection of money.
- collapsible callout with "story time" of S from H's story.
- uninformed docs
- collapsible callouts (multiple!) with "story time"
my way
- diy
- community-driven
- link diyhrt.cafe
- link transharmreduction
- goal
- yes, samlacian is an option.
- yes, i will do that
- cost 30k - but only once in your life :)
my recommendations
- Warning: im not a medical expert. I "just" hat a few terms of molecular-biology, neuro-biology, psychology, chemistry etc. in university. I can READ papers and graphs and understand stuff - but not conduct that research myself.
- forget about androcur - imo it is only useful the first 6 month for more rapid
onset
- not needed as high enough E-Levels suppress T-Production and generation of DHT
- aim E2 about 200-400pg/ml, T cis-female range
- -> show Abott 5 and 95-quantile for cis females
- beware also bias because many cis females suffer from symptoms that could be treated by more E2.
- EEn sc is best for this and has a "cycle" of 1 week
- add P4 only after a year or so of treatment
- -> graph of E2 in cis females 8-18;
- 8-12 elevated E2, only then P4.
- cycle of 1 week instead of 1 month => 4 years in cis ~ 1 year in trans
- beware: just crackpot-theory. No basis.
- P4 should be cycled
- show cis female cycle, basically 14 day on, 14 day off - factor of 20+ between those values
- only anecdotal evidence .. but .. i got breasts and i can give milk - and seems to do no harm
- -> graph of E2 in cis females 8-18;
