~6 mg (~0.12 mL; 50 mg/mL concentration) estradiol enanthate injected intramuscularly into the vastus lateralis in our right thigh using our Union Medico auto-stabber and a 25 mm 25G TotalDose low dead space needle 💉

It should have been done sometime yesterday, but other stuff took priority. On the plus side, it was a simple, painless injection, despite our thumb-splint-wrist-supports reducing our hand dexterity in certain tasks (in exchange for support and strength in others).

Nearing the end of our final estradiol enanthate vial now. Really need to get a wiggle on about finding an ideal way to switch from weekly enanthate to fortnightly undecylate. It would really help if any of the simulators online were based on recent-ish data from trans+ fem folx across the world, and/or had a good option for crosstapering from one ester to another. (Technically estrannai.se does have the latter, but the simulation data seems wrong and the way it autoformats is pretty shite.)

Due to the number of other tasks that needed doing before the end of the evening on 29/05/2026, as well as desperately needing a nap, the injection for 29/05/2026 has been postponed until 30/05/2026.

We apologise for the interruption to the regular injection posts.

Together, we urge NHS England to:
-pause and reverse implementation of this policy change
-ensure the clinical commissioning policy reflects established international best practice
-and incorporate patient and clinician consensus and testimony into any decision about transgender healthcare.

Uneventful, which was great, as we're exhausted and far too warm 🩷

Managed to do it early for once (!!!) about an hour ago or so without any major issues: just general tiredness, lack of focus, executive dysfunction etc. Must have picked a near-ideal site.

On a tangent, for reasons we won't go into right now, we're not sure whether we're going to keep doing these weekly injection posts any more, or at least for much longer. We know we've been doing them for a couple of years now, but... yeah...
