IMPORTANT SITE REMINDERS ARE LISTED AFTER THIS RANT (so please read all of it in order to find the rules >:3)
On this mega I shall take the opportunity to rant about one of my favorite things: the Webnovel UNJUST DEPTHS!
Do you love transgenders?
Do you love communism?
Do you love queer romance?
Do you love killing fascists in a giant fucking mech?
Would a plotline with all of these things happening in a underwater retro-futuristic gundam setting intrigue you?
Especially if its actually really well written with good characters, rich worldbuilding, and a marxist leninist transfem author?
All of the answers should be: YES I DO or else I WILL BAN YOU
Since you obviously love all of those things then Unjust Depths is perfect for YOU yes YOU! It is DESTINY
The Imbrian Ocean is at a time of severe instability. The monarch of the vast Empire that spans its unjust depths (:3) is sick and nearing death, every territory of the ocean now vying to carve their own Destiny out of the chaos. From the Volk fascists , Zionists (they literally will not die why are they still here oh my god), The 'Anarchists' (social chauvanists) in Bosporus, and the monarchs of each vast noble domain, each vies for power and prestige no matter who they crush underfoot, but it would be a pretty depressing story without a bright light in the dark.
On the edge of the Empire sits the glorious Union! The (Soviet) Union is a socialist federation of three states (and one anarchist mountain )that were formerly slave colonies under the Imbrian Empire until they broke away in a fierce liberation war. They have spent the last 20 years since then building themselves up. Whether they be Human , Shimmi (Catgirls who usually follow a religion closely related to modern Islam), and Kattaran (a hybrid humanoid species with characteristics of sea life ranging from sharks to cuttlefish)building socialism side by side.
First lead under the revolutionary leader Dashka Kansal, then the Idealist Ahwalia who lead the country to near ruin in pursuit of building a utopia on pillars of sand, then under the scientific socialist leadership of the Grand Marshall of the Union, Bhavani Jayanskar (I love Jayanskar so much shes basically as if Stalin, Lenin, and Zhukov were rolled into the same person but was a black lesbian badass who wore the uniform REALLY WELL)(she aint the main character at all tho shes only in very few scenes i just love her so much). Under Jayanskar, the Union has been growing their economy to both eliminate hunger and give everyone a home , but also growing their military capabilities for the inevitable return of the Empire. The Union is alone, but with the people by its side nothing, not even Destiny, can snuff out true freedoms light.
As war wages between the Empire and Republic (basically underwater USA) once more over the lands between them, the facade begins to finally crack...
And a border conflict between the Empire and Union escalate, and the dreaded reconquest begins.
Amidst this turmoil, lives our main characters (yes there are multiple and all of them are lovely). Each of whom I personally love dearly, and are very well characterized. Many are soldiers of the Union, some are scientists, some are divers (mech pilots), some are lost strands finding new meaning after joining this band of Brigands
All are Communists
All serve the Union
All would gladly give their lives to defending socialism
but even they would have little inkling of the adventure set in store for them as the lands beneath the waves erupt in fire, fury, and revolt
Can these transgender badasses kick fascist ass?

Oh yeah my levels are in nmol/L. So estrogen is "1878 nmol/L" and testosterone is ">0.4 nmol/L". For everyone who was worried I was dead irl.
These are on provincial government letterhead which is neat. What should I do?
Fwiw I did pop an estrogen like an hour or three before this, they have never asked me not to.
you shouldnt if you want accurate levels

it's not like they're supposed to be the health care professionals getting paid the big bucks....oh wait
I have literally no trust in any medical "professional" and will never mot doublecheck their shit.
This is the way.
fun fact, if you put the gel straight into your crotch it's 3x as effective, evidently my doctor didnt know this judging by the horrified note she put into my blood work levels. She did calculate it correctly and no one ever told me where to put the gel.
slowly collecting cheap treasure trove of estrogen gel
Fuck, you can gel your... Oh that's kind of awesome, oh I kind of fucking like that. Oh, yes.
I love that you horrified your doctor and I want that treasure trove of gel.
They refuse to give me vials because there's a risk of blood clots or whatever so fuck em, i'll fucking drink this gel if i want, bitches
There probably isn't though? Unless you have a condition but I assume doctors are just liars lmao. Based though, drink that shit!!!
That's where I assumed it would go Healthcare professionals should like, inform patients.
honestly my doctor has multiple times asked me why my E levels are ridiculously high after bloodwork, only for me to say "I didn't do anything different except maybe took meds that morning whoops" and for her to say "that shouldn't affect anything" and me to say "idk" and go back 2 weeks later, being sure I didn't take meds right before, only to find my levels are fine.
lol many such cases I guess...
It was at least 3 hours
I just have inhumanly high levels normally
holy balls that's really high
Maybe they don’t know you’re taking it sublingually? With oral I don’t think it matters as much since the blood levels don’t change as rapidly
Surely you are supposed to do sublingual because oral is "loser shit" and "a waste" right? I was told on here and elsewhere.
i tried sublingual once but it just left this chalky texture in my mouth, never did it again.
From estrogen, really? I mean it tastes kind of gross but Idk. I do it every time and then chug water lol
ah was i supposed to do chug water? but yeah, i take the blue ones, i think the generics here? its also time consuming to wait for it to dissolve, never seems worth it to me personally. have definitely had friends who would swear by sublingual, and one who even snorted it lol
SNORTED IT!! woah that's rad lmao. I usually drink a bit after, Idk. It does take a good bit to dissolve, so if it's a sensory issue for you then do you. Idk, I got warned on all the forums and whatever about oral, very silly in retrospect I guess.
yeah, i am dumb and just kinda trust my doctor since reading bloodwork scares me, too many numbers. my levels are allegedly fine, and my boobs are humongous, so it must be fine.
without an ounce of irony, based
same, DDs
Yeah, sublingual is more effective than oral at getting the estrogen into your bloodstream, but estrogen is estrogen1 and oral is convenient and good enough for a lot of people. Also I’m pretty sure the pills are marketed as being for oral and that might be what the doctor is assuming people are doing
1 yeah yeah e2 vs e1 and all that, the important part is if your estradiol (e2) levels are high enough (for you) and for a lot of people oral can achieve that
Alright there you go then, that makes sense. I see. Figures stupid forums would be silly about it.
Sounds like people are jumping from “sublingual gives you higher e2 levels” to “oral is useless” which is just not true. Could also be a reaction to doctors not knowing any better and not telling patients they can take it sublingually
