I unfortunately live in a not very trans friendly state in the US (more like trans hostile tbh) so I've been doing my HRT pretty much solo/without seeing doctors. Been doing mono estradiol enanthate for about a year now following the manufacturer's recommendations (0.15 mL every 7 days) and wanted to try getting on prog but i'm not sure what dosage i should be at. any recommendations?

im not familiar with elder lore. what do you mean by stunted growth?

im doing all this sans a doctor and i couldn't find much information on prog. a friend who's already fully transitioned suggested it (they took it for a while until their prescription ended)

    oh then yeah diy. i did in fact confuse it for homebrew. im not seeing a doc about this (america ;-;).

    fair enough about protecting the sources. i just didn't know where else to ask.

    i did not know there was a chatroom! thank you, will be checking that out

    um pretty sure! unless my hands stained it lol. i think maybe they made the label reactive to light so you know when it went bad? i honestly don't know. gonna have to contact the manufacturer but that's gonna take weeks for a reply :(

    the label and the manufacturer of my een say not to expose it to light. what happens if it is? last week i did my injection, but forgot about the warning and was holding it up near my bathroom light while i drew the needle. is it still safe/effective? tonight's my next shot, probably should have asked sooner :P

    edit: only realized my mistake after finishing the injection and noticing the label had turned red

    edit 2: pic of the label bein red

    edit 3: got a pretty quick reply from the manufacturer. label turning red/black is normal actually, from heat/moisture, which makes sense. also according to the manufacturer, the e is slightly pink: normal for mct oil when exposed to light, but as long as it doesn't get worse it should be fine.
