“BS!

It’s well known and established that any hormone replacement therapy greatly increases incidents of cancer - it’s also partially why it’s banned in athletics.

Supplementation for those in need is one thing but supplementing because you think your physical sex is wrong is retarded to the 10th degree”

This.

Hormones are: Birth control pills (oral contraceptives), anabolic and other steroid preparations to enhance hair growth or muscle development, hormones such as Lupron (to shrink the prostate in cases of cancer or prostatic hypertrophy), and of course estrogen and testosterone to help you “transition” from a male to female and vice versa.

Progesterone is administered as a long-term birth control measure - for example, to a woman who has just given birth, or to women in the military or athletics, to minimize the chances for pregnancy.

All these medicines come with explicit caveats. They are powerful drugs that create physiologic changes that are often PERMANENT. Also - I know y’all don’t care about this, but - the production of hormone medications involves animal cruelty.

Distrust the medical establishment. And then distrust them some more.

I was not transitioning, (always male and OK ); But my doc put me on testosterone suppliments and the next thing I noticed was that I was producing too many red blood cells. The solution was to draw some blood ervery few months and keep taking testosterone. Then I discovered I was developing arythmia and then I was prescribed blood thinners. Next I developed a subdural hemotoma. A doctor suggested that I should discontinue the testosterone because it may be cause of some of these problems. That is what I did.

Later found that I had sleep apnea throughout this period. I now believe this was the principle cause but I still have the other issues. I would recommend people who are considering this course of action to look carefully for other causes as well, I believe doctors are sometimes afflicted with tunnel vision.
