          4 mg oral. the mouthbreathers at my local planned parenthood refuse to prescribe injections. they’re honestly borderline criminally negligent, met a gigahon who was getting meds through them and apparently they prescribe minoxodil as a “t-blocker.” lmao.

          i’d just fucking diy at this point but i need referrals for ffs. i love living in a rural area.

              at this point yeah i probably will. worried that if they see my levels higher than cisf trough the fuckers will try to drop my rx though. same pp that refused to do a dht test when i had concerns about dht backpathing from prog because “testosterone is the masculinizing hormone.” i’m not making this up.

                yeah i would skip doses right before a blood test but the dr still kept lowering the dose, it was insane but probably would have been worse if i took the normal one. the levels were literally menopause-tier. pretty sure they just hated me and wanted me to leave but wouldn’t drop me

      it’s possible, i guess? i’ve had people assume that before bc i tend to dress pretty androgynous/masc. plus all my legal stuff says “F” so they might genuinely assume i’m a pre-everything trans guy.

        yeah i think that’s honestly more likely. if you have an F and you voicetrained or not super male voice and shave/laser that’s basically enough for normies i’m serious. some don’t know we can even change IDs (they also don’t think we should be able to).

          had a nurse apologize to me for having my “birth sex” on paperwork (it was an F lol) so yeah ur probably right. i guess going by an androgynous name also confuses them tbf.

              A. because the hrt question was from the psychiatrist rather than the nurse and

    during the appt i repeatedly complained about looking like a dude. 0 pushback. said i was ugly. all smiles, “oh no you’re not ugly you need to work on your self esteem.”

    so glad i transitioned to look like a handsome man. ha ha. ha ha. ha.
