Hi friends! We hear some of you are unsure about the correct way of opening estradiol vials.
We always had a little FAQ section about that on our website, and now we have added a series of pictures showing the process step by step. So no excuses anymore, but also no worries (as always): It is really easy! #DIYHRT #TransDIY

DIY feminising HRT injection

~7.5 mg (0.15 mL; 50 mg/mL concentration) estradiol enanthate injected intramuscularly into the vastus lateralis in our left thigh using our Union Medico auto-injector 💉🩹

A little bit late, as had got so distracted doing the Windows upgrade for most of the day 😅 Managed it quickly and painlessly though.

tits too small. dark magic requested

okay but seriously are there other hormones or like anything besides top surgery that can help? top surgery results on tgirls are all not what I want at all, disappointingly, so I want to keep growing them naturally

Actually remembered to do this at a respectable time this evening after our reminder alerted us at 18:00 😌

One year on E today :ablobcatrave: .. seems i had good preconditions for growing boobies :o) .. did not expect to be so far in 12 months tbh, although i knew it somehow. Always had higher E levels i think (small breasts since i can think of(childhood) etc. Looks like the extra E kicked them over the edge to level up a few lvls :D.

So todays office outfit pics feature the(my) best (body :D) parts.. boobies, legs and feet :D.

Casual reminder to talk to normal people about DIY-HRT.

The fact that it has become the de-facto standard for transgender healthcare around the world is a scandal and most people will see it that way, once they get a grasp of what is going on. Keep in mind that most cis people have no clue about anything related to trans people and that ignorance is
very much not the same as malice.

And by telling them about DIY-HRT, I actually mean the full story: Online-pharmacies, homebrewers, bathtub-estrogen and how massively they differ in price. (A collegue of mine went from “I would never mix my own medication” to “I would totally mix my own medication” upon me mentioning that I was spending ≈100€ per month on pharmaceutical grade medication at the time). Explain how mixing works and why we are so confident in the quality that homebrewers produce (independent tests!). Mention that gel is primarily hand-sanitizer, so that even if they were to work in unhygenic matters, the result would still be estrogen-infused hand-sanitizer!

Talk about how stupidly low the regret rates are and that most effects reverse on their own if you really came to regret them. Be open, direct and keep refering to it as the de-facto standard of treatment. Make it clear why it is necessary, safe and widespread.

People who are somewhat open-minded can be convinced! And they will afterwards know how awful the hellcare systems around the world treat us and might mention it to others or argue in our favor. Keep in mind that we (trans people) are like 1% of the population, we
need allies! And our allies need to know what we need and what our situation is!

The one caveat I will add: Talking to jornos and right-wingers is a different story, as many of them are malicious actors and will frame things in harmful ways, if given the chance!

Forgot we had to this until really late, hence the late message. Considering it's late, it was in our non-dominant leg this week, and we've been feeling a bit shitty all day, it was surprisingly easy, entirely painless, and totally bloodless (not even a drip leaked out) 🥰

hey where you like to get ur (separate) 1ml syringes + drawing and injecting needles? (and recs for what gauge for both?)
#diyhrt

I just want to have some extra on hand. for reasons

@thejessiekirk It's not always the case with injections: just the ones that trans masc folk in the UK tend to be given.

The 2 most-commonly-prescribed injections are:

Both are compounded at 250 mg/mL, but they're quite different otherwise in terms of chemical make-up, viscosity, and volume.

Sustanon is a 1 mL injection mix of refined arachis oil (peanut oil) and benzyl alcohol, containing:

  • 30 mg testosterone propionate
  • 60 mg testosterone phenylpropionate
  • 60 mg testosterone isocaproate
  • 100 mg Testosterone decanoate

It is typically administered every 2-4 weeks.

Nebido, conversely, is a 4 mL injection containing 1000 mg testosterone undecanoate, suspended in a mixture of refined castor oil and benzyl benzoate. It's typically administered every 10-12 weeks.

The main difference between these, other than the different esters of testosterone, is the viscosity of the carrier oil used.

Figures vary and there's no universal unit used for viscosity, but in all of these, castor oil is significantly more viscous than peanut oil, or MCT oil (which is commonly used in the DIY / homebrew community).

Don't know if this'll help or not, but we thought you might find it interesting :TransHeart:

Super easy injection tonight. Helps that we didn't leave it too late in the day.

Apologies yet again that we haven't yet reviewed the auto injector.

La musicienne SuperKnova, en plus d'être turbo talentueuse, a fait une petite vidéo avec trois astuces pour diminuer la douleur des injections pour les personnes qui ont mal quand elles le font : youtube.com/watch?v=SN1FTRc2P8

En résumé :

  • Des vibrations à côté du site d'injection.
  • Du froid sur le site d'injection avant de la faire.
  • Des petits bidules d'acupression en silicone pour saturer les capteurs sensoriels.

C'est rapide et c'est clair 👍

(Évidemment, ça ne se limite pas aux traitements hormonaux)

DIY / homebrew HRT query on behalf of a trans gal we know, who lives in Sweden :TransHeart: 🇸🇪

How would someone in Sweden, hypothetically, get progesterone (P4) capsules or cream without a prescription, in light of Sweden's restrictive customs?

It goes without saying that this is necessary as Sweden, like the UK and other countries, has incredibly-poor gender-affirming healthcare for trans people :FaceExhaling:

Our current thoughts are:

  • Find an EU-based pharmacy that's willing to sell progesterone cream without prescription, so customs don't check it 🇪🇺
  • Get an EU-based friend to forward them on.
  • Import progesterone API (CAS 57-83-0) and make them yourself 💊

Thoughts?

DIY feminising HRT injection

Left doing our weekly injection a little late in the day 😅

~7.5 mg (0.15 mL; 50 mg/mL concentration) estradiol enanthate injected intramuscularly into the vastus lateralis in our left thigh using our Union Medico auto-injector. Almost entirely painless (like 95%). (We're tired, so it's harder to hold skin entirely taught.)

trans orchi surgery question and lewd

hey, can you guys help me decide if i want to get an orchi, once and for all? what are some of the pros and cons you can think of?

i like topping bitches, but it's currently extremely painful every time i've tried. would this help, or should i just bite the bullet and get full vaginoplasty and use a strap on? lol
also tell me about the orgasm experience a little? how does that change? be as graphic as possible
and, hormone wise, it seems like it would only be positive for me to no longer produce T, yeah? cis people have been asking me a lot lately for some reason if i'll need to take hormones for the rest of my life. how would you answer that?
and lastly, aesthetically, are there different ways to have it done, or is it usually just snip snip bye bye testes hello empty scrotum?? the girls i've seen that with actually don't look bad at all compared to what i would've expected, but if there's a way it can be done prettier, i'm interested.
