Ok this is bugging me I gotta say it but the lady at pp actually at first was like “oh you’re having atrophy? It’s time to stop the testosterone then!” and I just was like “No?” And she was rly weird about it until she said I could take the E too
Ok I just got topical E through planned parenthood and everything is way better now

I’m sorry is this me or is this a crazy thing to suggest to a trans person experiencing a common side effect of T. I was literally told to come back in for treatment if I was experiencing atrophy, why would I then get told to stop HRT?

yeah that was Definitely a weird suggestion for that doctor to immediately jump to, sounds like she was bizarrely quick to assume that the benefits of being on T just weren’t all that important or necessary for you? which… imo makes her seem really uninformed
