It’s supposed to be a time of joy, right? You’ve just brought a new life into the world. But instead of that rush of milky love, you’re feeling… off. #adrenalcrisis #childbirthcomplications #hormonedeficiency #hormonereplacementtherapy #pituitarygland #postpartumhypopituitarism #Sheehansyndrome

Saheli, a 'non-steroidal non-hormonal contraceptive pill'. Saheli dosage starts 1 pill per half-week for ... (?), then 1 pill weekly. Basically induce a brief, mini-menopause that stops when you stop the pills. https://saheliinfo.com/clinical-evidence
Then! ONE-YEAR vaginal ring Annovera. Unlike monthly-ish vaginal rings, (https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/product/6449/smpc) this thicker vaginal ring holds enough for 13 cycles with one week bleeding breaks, or 12 if you skip periods. Think "buff NuvaRing". https://www.annoverahcp.com/
Speaking of intra-uterine system / device options: the UK does several! We are no longer stuck with the larger, higher dose Mirena hIUS. https://www.mirena.co.uk/ I want the smaller, lower dose (but shorter duration) Jaydess https://www.fsrh.org/Public/Public/Documents/ceu-product-review-jaydess-apr-14.aspx or Kyleena. https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/product/769/smpc
(You can fit a non-hormonal IUD copper coil as emergency contraception, within 10 days of unprotected sex. Fitting it as regular birth control anytime otherwise is also fine, when not pregnant.) https://patient.info/sexual-health/long-acting-reversible-contraceptives-larc/intrauterine-contraceptive-device
Finally, vasectomy. New part is "I found multiple cases where doctors did their own vasectomies". This may be helpful for hesitant cis men and AMAB people to know. Vasectomies are reversible ("easily", according to a medical nerd friend, but obv different people's bodies respond to things in weird, cool ways, so everything depends). https://www.baus.org.uk/_userfiles/pages/files/Patients/Leaflets/Vasectomy.pdf
I am not a doctor. Even if I were, I am not YOUR doctor. I do not have access to your medical records.
I'm just infodumping useful info to prevent unwanted pregnancies, minimise unplanned pregnancies, and mitigate risks. https://cks.nice.org.uk/topics/contraception-sterilization/management/male-sterilization-vasectomy/

Anyone got experience with https://www.edennew.life/ ?
I was gonna go with them, but then realised my gut was saying no for all the AI stuff on their website.
(But then they sent a marketing e-mail about how they'd tried it but don't find LLM tools to be that helpful?)

oooh https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danazol is an endo and lupus treatment... but metabolised by liver, so even if joints improve, my ALTs still need to come down.
"Mastodanatrol"?! MASTODON atrol, gdi.
argh. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2Ggwe2j0Gc is useful in more ways than just sharing it widely to assuage my anxiety.
A youtube comment: "With masculinizing treatment, I think there are other T options but can't remember the details.
If you've not had surgery, you'll want to consider taking progesterone to prevent pregnancy as T doesn't reliably prevent it.
Additionally, you can take finasteride to try to prevent hairloss although it may stunt beard growth."
"Finasteride is not suitable for some people. To make sure it's safe for you, tell a doctor if you have:
* ever had an allergic reaction to finasteride or any other medicine,
* ever had depression or thoughts about harming yourself,
* severe bladder problems, or
* liver problems".
... well at least I don't have -- oh wait yeah, the recurrent UTIs. :/

What is Hormone Replacement Therapy? (Download and archive this video.)
A hormone is a chemical messenger made by your body to send signals to some or all body cells. Some hormones are made in other bodies or through chemical processes, like other medications.
HRT is a medical treatment for certain conditions, including menopause for some people, or precocious puberty for others.
(Mostly) Older men and women also use it to affirm their gender experiences.
HRT has certain side effects on your body. You may find these desirable or unpleasant.
Any medical intervention can have therapeutic effects and side effects. Different people experience different outcomes.
Do you want or need to biohack your hormone levels to affect your body?
Please learn more from your GP, family doctor, primary care provider, or another trusted clinician with access to your personal medical records.
Some of the waiting lists can be quite long, or involve more steps than you may expect. So ask early, please!

from the vid: gender affirming care is suicide prevention. It's also preventative care against diseases of despair.

Fun fact, which is giving me grief. Being on T can make your feet grow - which is great if you can afford new shoes. I can't. I have already outgrown my favorite pair. Now I have only one pair left and they are getting very tight...
