    I know that this is a meme, but injectable hormones are not good for long term storage since they are made from oil, such as MCT oil, and oil will eventually go bad. Vials can be stored for several years, but not for decades.

    Can I talk about DIY here?

      One of the first links I saw about DIY estrogen. It does seem like a pretty involved process to manufacture, and relies on either getting Estradiol either through subterfuge (pretending you're a research institution), or from China. This all seems doable, but would require an actual network of people working underground to produce and distribute it, not something that you could easily make at home. I guess this drives home the point of how essential it will be to create our own IRL networks of people to ramp up underground production for this kind of thing.

        Gel is harder to make than injections tho. I am a bit afraid of sharing information, but if the raw powder (enanthate) is kept in good condition, and as long as oil can be procured whenever needed, it should be possible to only buy the powder once in a lifetime.

    I actually have a year's worth of E and blockers stockpiled right now lol, because I just moved countries and I don't know when I'm going to be able to get more here
