    Oh, sick! SERMs are Selective Estrogen Receptor Inhibitors, they see use in breast cancer treatment but also just stop breast growth generally. Pretty neat!

    Also yeah, while hormones pretty much can't change your sexuality on their own, they could change your sensibilities or tastes or stuff. Special emotional changes. But wew, honestly if it's gonna give you anxiety and you like & enjoy how your body is now, it sounds like you've made good choices for yourself. (Imagine that!!) I definitely fuss over missing HRT refills now and then, or levels stuff, or general availablity, personally I was just motivated hard because I fuckin hated testosterone and masculinisation so much. I had to did something abt it bocchi-cry

    You're actually not the first person I've ever seen have like, medicinal anxiety around hormones (and other things) actually. It's a lil dimension of trans experience I think a lotta people don't consider. Thank u for sharing cat-trans

      Thank you for the info!

      My current plan is to just take it slow. Rn I'm just doing hair removal. Once that's finished, I'll revisit how I feel about my body and whether I wanna push further with HRT.

      Hormones aren't available to me now, anyway, and there's no way I'm gonna do DIY.

      Or if the hair on my head starts falling out lmao. Good call on the cypro and spiro, too.
