Wohoo, yay, ceeeleeebrate.
I picked up my first batch of pharma E today, estrofem 2mg for now. I will soon post here some day zero pictures and my plan on how to proceed from now on. I'm switching from pm to estradiol, going to take it sublingual for the time being. How long will I be doing this DIY I can't tell yet, the trans clinic is yet to contact me about the fist visit. I'm hoping to get a fast process to get my diagnosis, bloodwork and HRT going on, but there's no telling yet how quick it will be. Very likely it will take some months at least, they're going to contact me in the next 6 months at some point depending on how long the waiting list is currently. Last year it was about one month so hopefully it wont be much longer now.
The way I'm gonna deal with this for now is basically keep the supplementary stuff going, meaning vitamin D3, MSM, melatonin and reishi as I haven't got any pharma AA yet. And will I, I don't know. So far reishi has been pure magic, it clearly does its job fairly well. I will start on 2mg/day and keep it at that for a month or two before I even think of higher dose. I need to know how my body reacts to the change. If the way herbs have worked on me is any kind of indicator, it can be quite a ride.
Anyway, that's all for now, I'll come back with pictures and measurements to establish my baseline into this. I'm really excited, I've waited so long for this. Wish me luck. <3
