for context im in my early 20s and in a decent material condition rn so getting the AA isnt the problem, it's just deciding which to get

CW: mention of alcoholism

so a friend recommended bica and i was pretty much just about to get it until i saw in the warnings section (on this website: https://healor.com/bicalutamide_mtf) that it said "Do not use or use with caution if you drink heavily" and since i'm an alcoholic (and have been for quite a long time, tried to quit a few times but always started drinking again) i think that i probably shouldn't go with it.

so since i'm probably not going to be doing bica because of the alcohol related warning, what type of AA would you people advise i get instead?

edit: also how bad could it be if i just went ahead with getting bica anyway, is it worth just trying that out despite the alcohol risk? because it seems to be the best for what i want out of hrt that isnt ludicrously expensive

      i was looking at it and it seems fine but it says that its the slowest acting form of AA there is, which is dissappointing

        i think this is overthinking it a bit. i had close to zero T within a month of spiro. very much a ymmv especially on dosage
