I’ve been getting more comfortable with the idea of starting hrt. The 2 main reasons I havent yet are the current US politics and also I’m not ready for my parents to know about that yet and as far as I am aware they would know because I’m on their insurance and it would be in the bill. Diy avoids both of those things though. The one thing idk about is actually paying for it. I’m in college rn and while I did make a good amount of money over the summer, spending $20 per month or however much it is doesn’t really sound great but because it is something I genuinely need im not sure and I just want to avoid going through my parents and the medical system

Edit: Also realized I should mention that I am an adult because that’s probably important with informed consent stuff

    There are positives and negatives to DIY. This website has good info. It has never been more feasible to access DIY and a lot of good resources and groups exist to help you figure it out.

    Make sure to focus on suppliers that are reputable and follow safe injection practices. There are websites around that keep track of suppliers and availability. They really only take payment in crypto, but most suppliers have guides on getting the crypto and paying them.
