whew that stresstrogen got me good!
It took having a day off to realize I’ve been using distraction pretty much nonstop (I’m still doing it) because the emotions are too much. And to remind me that even though this new brand doesn’t give me headaches (yay!), I still need to manage side effects. I completely forgot to take my testosterone the past week. I had forgotten how anxious that makes me feel. This time around I have depression too
Most trans people have experienced gender dysphoric care. The healthcare someone receives can affect their self perception. I was ambivalently agender - neither cis nor trans seemed to fit - before receiving my diagnosis. When medication started changing my body (if I had been cis, it would have been gender affirming care) I felt wrong. I went from ambivalently agender to angrily agender

People often talk about gender confirming care. I want people to know about gender dysphoric care. If your body is young and isn’t producing sex hormones and you don’t have a gender, any care is gender dysphoric. The best you can hope for is a doctor who accepts your lack of gender and is willing to adjust hormone doses until you are kind of ok

I don’t usually talk about #PrimaryOvarianInsufficiency but I have it and apparently it affects 1 in 1000 “women” (i’m guessing it means people with ovaries but I didn’t perform the study so I don’t know) under 30 and 1% under 40. I want to converse with folks about how #POI and HRT affects gender and sexual identity and mood, and also experiences of diagnosis process. Feel free to message me if you don’t want to talk on the open fediverse
