Could The post also be edited in a way, that transfem science.org is also listed in the Guides Section? Their Articles are insanely good and detailed.
I already link several of their pages. I suppose I could link this page there: https://transfemscience.org/articles/transfem-intro/
Edit: and now I do!
It might also be good to mirror some resources from /r/estrogel about how to mix your own medication and include the places where you can buy the raws. (AFAIK dragonordnance is generally trusted?)
Since I’ve finally gotten to the point where I’m now officially on HRT and have DIY’ed but not mixed myself before, I’m sadly not the best source on all that, but it is kinda important to be aware of the possibility as this will be by far the hardest option to take away from us.
Maybe! I’ve already downloaded a copy of the estrogel and transdiy wikis just in case something there happens (estrogel being featured in the news is what prompted me making this place). I’ll look into mirroring some sources.
I should add dragonordnance is apparently very sketch. They reportedly selectively scam people and are very transphobic. PPL is better but has a slightly sketch reputation as well, but I’ve personally had success with them. Sorry for the year late reply but since your comment is prominent on the resource post I just wanted to comment on it :P
Completely fair, I never saw the issues with necroing, especially on stickied posts. 😄
Wow! This post is really rockin!
This comment is totally not written so I can mod my piefed alt!Thank you so much for this.
Reddit started demanding my personal ID to vies r/transdiy and I’ve been searching for this information for a while now!
silvermaple has shut down and as such so has the cryptocurrency guide
Ah, thank you. I will look for a replacement
Edit: Found one pretty quick. Made a backup of it as well
