HRT: There was a quite interesting article in the Telegraph talking about the new weight loss jabs affecting the uptake of HRT.

While not being on - weight loss - injections, of course I read it. #Trans women are world leading experts on our own bodies, and gatekeepy cis doctors (let's be frank) can get lost.

Anyway to cut a long story short ...

1 - weight loss jabs affect HRT taken orally, which for us all affects Estradiol and Progesterone pills (not transdermal or injections)

2 - there's an interesting insight on an increased risk of womb cancer for cis women on high dose estrogen HRT I'd like to read up on.

°° Well fascinating to me, excuse the rambling 😂

For those interested, cis and trans:

Future of Trans Youth Healthcare at Risk: Government Actions Scrutinized

Less than a year after the U.K. banned puberty blockers for trans youth, health secretary Wes Streeting, the Health Minister for this very un-Labour-like Labour government, is considering banning the prescription of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) by private clinics and healthcare providers to patients under 18.

I have the trans endocrinology autism.

Standing offer to (in replies or DM):
* Explain how HRT works (also see the site I created hrt.witches.club/ )
* Explain when to get blood tests, what should be tested, and what your results mean
* Second opinion your doctors and their treatment plan
* Help you workout how and what to DIY
* Debug weird corner cases and interactions when things don't go as expected
* Refer you to others who also do this

I have more experience with feminisation HRT, but can also help with masculinisation HRT.

Boosts welcome! :blobhaj_flag_transgender: :blobhaj_flag_nonbinary:
